Abstract

This article outlines the methodology for creating and solving exercises and problems that develop logical thinking in chemistry. The author presents methods and practical examples that serve to enhance students' analytical thinking and foster their ability to draw independent conclusions. Special attention is given to developing students' analytical reasoning, ability to analyze problematic situations, understand cause-effect relationships, and form independent conclusions. The methodological recommendations are enriched with practical examples, the application of which in chemistry lessons serves to increase not only students' knowledge of the subject but also their level of general cognitive ability.
