Abstract: The integration of scientific research and education in chemistry laboratory teaching is instrumental in advancing educational reforms. By organically combining foundational instruction with research, this approach enhances talent development through practical application. Using the organic oxidation reaction on a Ni(OH)₂ electrode as a case study, this course comprises five instructional modules: preparation and characterization of the Ni(OH)₂ electrode, investigation of its organic oxidation characteristics, in situ electrochemical determination of the catalytic active center, analysis of charge transfer mechanisms at the electrochemical interface, and first-principles studies of the thermodynamics of organic oxidation. This curriculum spans from macroscopic to microscopic descriptions of electrochemical reaction mechanisms and their in situ characterization techniques. The objective is to deepen students' understanding of relevant electrochemical theories while fostering their scientific research skills and innovative thinking through hands-on experimental learning.
