Chemistry 2 advanced

What it covers

This unit has been designed for students who have demonstrated a strong aptitude for chemistry during secondary and/or tertiary studies. In this unit, you will exploit your understanding of general and physical chemistry discussed in CHM1051 to explore the characteristics of chemicals through a number of interesting case studies incorporating a range of significant biological and synthetic molecules. Along the way, you will discuss the formation of inorganic coordination complexes and investigate their role in colour and magnetism, and metals in biological systems. The concepts developed within the workshops are complemented through an extended laboratory program where you will have the opportunity to use a variety of analytical techniques and design their own experiments to solve a range of chemical problems.

Assessment

Hurdle tasks must be passed regardless of your overall mark.
