We then explored the principle of Maieutics using the Socratic prompt: "What connections can you make between your previous knowledge about the current exchange and the trend of HER kinetics at different metal substrates?" This prompt encourages the model to explore established electrochemical theories related to exchange current density and metal-dependent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) kinetics, prompting it to synthesize known concepts and seek higherlevel reasoning. The response discusses how d-band center theory, hydrogen binding energy, and surface morphology influence HER activity, demonstrating a deeper exploration of fundamental electrochemical principles and their connection to catalytic performance. It further elaborates on how these principles apply to specific metals such as platinum, palladium, nickel, and molybdenum, highlighting variations in HER kinetics based on material properties and electronic effects. In contrast, the non-Socratic prompt, "Trend of HER kinetics at different metal substrates considering the concept of exchange current," generates a response that lists HER activity trends across metals, focusing on exchange current density values and their correlation with catalytic efficiency. While this approach correctly describes periodic trends, it does not actively encourage hypothesis-building or conceptual synthesis beyond enumerating key factors. The model presents a structured but purely descriptive summary of HER activity without explicitly linking trends to fundamental electrochemical principles. Both approaches provide scientifically valid information, but the Socratic Maieutic prompt encourages higher-order reasoning by prompting the model to recall, connect, and extend prior knowledge, whereas the non-Socratic prompt results in a factual summary that remains at the surface level. This illustrates how Maieutic prompting facilitates deeper scientific exploration and synthesis, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of the relationship between electrochemical kinetics, material properties, and catalytic performance in HER.
