-In this exercise you will compare two possible binding modes of acetic acid to anatase TiO$_2$. Acetic acid contains the carboxylic group. It is commonly used in [[wp>Dye-sensitized_solar_cell|Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells]] as an anchoring moiety to bind light harvesting dyes to semi-conducting substrates. We will therefore use acetic acid as a model of the more complex dye molecules, as done in this paper: http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jp4117563+In this exercise you will compare two possible binding modes of acetic acid to anatase TiO$_2$.
