To understand the nature of the rate-determining steps (RDSs) of the ORR over newly developed catalysts, the analysis of the Tafel slopes of ORR voltammograms is beneficial for elucidating the number of electrons involved in the RDS. Conventionally, the Tafel slope is evaluated from the measured total current, which involves several different reaction pathways: the four-electron pathway from O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O described with a kinetic constant <i>k</i><sub>1</sub>, the two-electron pathway from O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> with <i>k</i><sub>2</sub>, and the two-electron pathway from H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O with <i>k</i><sub>3</sub>. This method provides reasonable Tafel slopes as long as the measured ORR is selective to a particular reaction pathway, such as the four-electron pathway over a Pt/C catalyst; however, typical Fe/N/C and N/C catalysts have mixed reaction pathways and analyzing the Tafel slopes from the total current does not provide meaningful information. To address this, we propose a new methodology for analyzing Tafel slopes. In this study, the measured ORR currents were converted into inherent kinetic constants (<i>k</i><sub>1</sub><sup>0</sup>, <i>k</i><sub>2</sub><sup>0</sup>, and <i>k</i><sub>3</sub><sup>0</sup>) using the Nabae model, which was previously developed by our group, and the Tafel plots for <i>k</i><sub>1</sub><sup>0</sup>, <i>k</i><sub>2</sub><sup>0</sup>, and <i>k</i><sub>3</sub><sup>0</sup> were analyzed to determine the Tafel slopes of each reaction pathway.
