A model for Raman scattering from molecules chemisorbed on surfaces is proposed. We suggest that part of the enhancement is due to modulation of the metal-surface reflectivity by the motion of the atom binding the molecule to the surface. The parameters entering the model are easily estimated from a jellium model of the solid. One quantitative comparison with existing experimental data is made.
