This study investigates the implementation of project-based learning in physical chemistry education through the case study of “iron removal by ClO₂ oxidation”. The instructional design incorporates four distinct sub-tasks: (1) feasibility analysis of iron removal through ClO₂ oxidation, (2) investigation of reaction limitations in iron removal by ClO₂ oxidation, (3) examination of kinetic principles governing iron removal by ClO₂ oxidation, and (4) comprehensive application and extension. This pedagogical approach enables students to develop multi-perspective problem-solving skills for addressing complex practical challenges. Through these inquiry-based activities, students achieve deeper conceptual understanding, cultivate systematic and innovative thinking patterns, and enhance their scientific literacy.
