Show Abstract ( 3 )
The interdisciplinary teaching of carbon dioxide content mainly created tasks from the perspective of environmental protection, with less involvement in the connection between chemistry, life and health, and medicine. Based on the students' existing experience and their knowledge in biology and chemistry, the core question of “the impact of carbon dioxide amount in the human body on health” was proposed. Four interdisciplinary situational tasks were created, including three practical inquiry activities of respiratory alkalosis, first aid methods for acidosis, and rescuing goldfish, which are related to medicine and biology. Through conducting interdisciplinary themed teaching practices based on real problem solving, students' interdisciplinary thinking was developed, and the development of core literacy was promoted.

Chinese Journal of Chemical Education. 2025, 46 (11): 60-68. ;  doi: 10.13884/j.1003-3807hxjy.2024050070

Show Abstract ( 2 )
The “new curriculum” encourages teachers to focus on improving the literacy of students, which values the importance of “evidence reasoning” and “model recognition” in chemistry. Such literacy significantly helps to build up their ability to prove evidences, improve their ability to construct abstract thinking models. In order to embrace this concept, this paper proposes the comprehensive teaching design of “atomic structure” based on a dual-model construction. The dual-model construction describes the constructional relationship between the theoretical model of the atomic structure and the thinking model for answering related questions. Furthermore, the corresponding syllabus is designed within two subsections where the first part is to introduce and re-construct the Bohr model and thinking model, and the second part is to improve the model into a quantum mechanics model with more evidence and new thinking models.

Show Abstract ( 2 )
The conversion between acids represents a classic issue within non-redox reactions, illustrating the practical application of weak electrolyte ionization equilibrium and salt hydrolysis equilibrium principles in ionic reactions. This study aims to explore the impact of the acid-salt-arrow method on students' analytical capabilities concerning the transition from strong acids to weak acids, particularly in the context of the new curriculum for weak electrolyte ionization equilibrium and salt hydrolysis equilibrium. The investigation focuses on the analysis speed and depth of understanding when dealing with strong acid to weak acid transitions of varying complexities. Findings indicate that the method significantly enhances students' proficiency in distinguishing between strong and weak acids and in writing relevant equations. Moreover, the teaching approach has notably improved students' analytical speed and their capacity for quantitative reasoning.

This paper uses easily accessible materials, combined with a smartphone macro lens, to build a simple contact angle measurement system and conduct a series of experiments. The contact angles of water on different solid surfaces and the effects of functional groups, carbon chain length, and positional isomerism of liquid organics on their contact angles were systematically studied. In addition, the effects of adding miscible liquids, inorganic salts, and surfactants to water on the contact angle of water were examined. By analyzing the changes in the contact angle from the perspective of intermolecular forces, the intrinsic connections between contact angle and the microstructure of substances were uncovered. This paper seeks to provide a fresh angle for high school chemistry education, assisting students in gaining a clearer understanding of intermolecular forces.

Show Abstract ( 2 )
In the current textbooks, when preparing of ferrous hydroxide, a gray-green precipitate appears first, which then turns into a reddish-brown precipitate, with no white precipitate observed. The explanation for the formation of the gray-green precipitate is vague, and the amount of reagents required for the experimental reaction is not quantified. This study explores the principle of the preparation of ferrous hydroxide. A simple oxygen-isolated reaction device is designed using a syringe and a test tube, and the optimal amounts of reagents for the preparation of ferrous hydroxide are quantitatively determined to be 1.0 mL of 0.10 mol/L ferrous sulfate solution and 5.0 mL of 8.00 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. The experimental results have demonstrated that the true cause of the formation of gray-green precipitates during the preparation of ferrous hydroxide is the hydration reaction between ferrous hydroxide and water, as well as the aggregation state resulting from its own sedimentation. The improved experiment is simple to operate, the white precipitate has a long preservation time, the reproducibility rate is high, and it is convenient for classroom demonstration.

It proposes a pathway for improving the experimentation process of preparing copper-ammonia fibers from an “integration of science and engineering” perspective. Aiming for “speed, simplicity, and efficiency”, this study conducts a theoretical analysis and comparison of various experimental schemes to explore better experimental conditions. Building on this, it further simulates the wet spinning process used in industry, integrating elements of scientific and engineering thought to design a “Copper-Ammonia Fiber Spinning Process Simulation” experiment. In conjunction with the historical development of the copper-ammonia fiber production industry, this paper discusses the value and implications of “integration of science and engineering” thinking.

Understanding of chemistry subject is the primitive and structured understanding of subject knowledge, thinking patterns and methods by teachers. In response to the difficulties faced by teachers in implementing core subject competencies and improving their academic abilities in their professional development, the academic community has taken understanding of subject as a breakthrough point and conducted multi-faceted research. In order to grasp the progress and trends of understanding of subject research, this article uses content analysis method to select 139 relevant literature as research samples, focusing on theoretical research, practical research, and evaluation research. Through comparative analysis, the following conclusions are drawn: the different positioning of discipline leads to differences in the field of understanding of subject; The convergence and singularity of disciplinary understanding paths require exploration of diverse understanding paths; The disciplinary understanding of specific topics focuses on problem orientation, but the research topics lack systemic and coherence. How to organically integrate understanding of subject with teaching practice urgently needs theoretical explanation; In the understanding level and ability of chemistry teachers, the dimension of chemistry thinking needs to be strengthened.

In the 1950s, Eversole first used chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to synthesize diamonds, the immaturity of technology and the confinement of ideas led to the chemical vapor deposition characterized by low stress being dubbed “Alchemy”. After 1982, the development of various CVD techniques and the theory of low-pressure diamond synthesis have prompted people to break the ideological prison and pay more attention to CVD diamond. At the beginning of the 21st century, another breakthrough in technological growth parameters and equipment has promoted the successful synthesis and commercialization of CVD single crystal diamond.In short, the process from low-pressure attempts to the synthesis of high-quality and large-sized single crystal diamonds reflects the advancement of technology and the development of ideas.
