Abstract In view of the common tendency of students in learning “neutralization reaction of acid and base”, such as “passive acceptance of specific knowledge, lack of ideas for real scientific exploration, neutralization reaction law of mechanical memory, lack of critical questioning spirit and lack of high-order thinking ability”, this paper sets up a driving problem chain to help students build a thinking bridge between “situational problems” and “real scientific inquiry”, and develops students' high-level thinking abilities such as divergent thinking, orderly thinking, multi angle analysis of problems, design and creative thinking, logical reasoning and evaluation reflection in deep scientific inquiry. Creating a relaxed and comfortable communication and discussion environment in classroom teaching is conducive to the collision of sparks of thinking and creative inspiration among students. Classroom observation shows that the implementation of deep scientific inquiry teaching has effectively improved students' high-order thinking ability and problem-solving ability.
