Abstract To overcome the limitations of the “single-variable static comparison” approach commonly used in current educational practices, this paper proposes an experimental inquiry-based approach to construct a thinking model for analyzing factors that affect oxidizing and reducing power, with a focus on shifts in electrode reaction equilibrium. This model helps students understand how concentration and the acidity/alkalinity of solutions impact electrode reactions, breaking through traditional cognitive barriers and effectively enhancing students’ chemistry core competencies, including “evidence-based reasoning and modeling” and “scientific inquiry and innovative awareness”.
