Abstract:

Based on the activation energy of the reaction occurring at the electrode, the structure of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface changes before and after pre-anodization and hydrogen bonding catalysis. This causes differences in the voltammograms of acetaminophen measured before and after pre-anodization using a GCE. These differences are discussed in this paper by applying the inquiry teaching mode, whicn can not only improve the quality of delivering chemistry experiments but also the teachers' instructional skills.

Key words: Inquiry teaching mode, Glassy carbon electrode, Hydrogen bonding catalysis, Acetaminophen voltammogram
