In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of the charged AdS Gauss–Bonnet black holes and their associations with the Lyapunov exponent. The chaotic features of the black holes and the isobaric heat capacity characterized by the Lyapunov exponent are studied to reveal the thermodynamic stability of the black hole phases. By considering both the timelike and null geodesics, we find that the relationship between the Lyapunov exponent and the Hawking temperature can accurately represent the features of the Small/Large phase transition and even the triple point. We also reveal the properties of the difference in the Lyapunov exponent as an order parameter. It is demonstrated that there is a negative correlation between the Lyapunov exponent and the size of the black hole shadow, which can be used to bridge the thermodynamic properties and the shadow of black holes.
