While terms like "oxidation state" and "formal charge" may appear similar, their distinctions are critical in specific applications, such as predicting reactivity in coordination chemistry or analyzing electron density in molecular orbitals. Understanding these differences allows chemists to apply the correct concept in the appropriate context, refining predictions and avoiding misinterpretations. For example, a Socratic prompt might ask: "What do we mean by 'oxidation state' in the context of transition metal complexes, and how does it differ from formal charge? Can you provide examples where these distinctions impact reactivity?" In contrast, a non-Socratic prompt might simply state: "What is an oxidation state?" By sharpening conceptual clarity via differentiation through Socratic prompts, LLMs can contextualize definitions effectively, ensuring precise communication and fostering innovative chemistry discovery. An example of this approach is discussed in the following section, where we examine how a Socratic prompt refines the definition of 'aromaticity' by distinguishing it from anti-aromaticity and connecting these distinctions to chemical reactivity and stability.
