Note

Please check that your computer meets the minimum System Requirements if you are attending via Distance/Off-Campus.

Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.

Special approval is required for enrolment into TNE Program units.

TNE Program units special approval requirements.

* The Final WW Date is the final date from which you can withdraw from the unit without academic penalty, however you will still incur a financial liability (see withdrawal dates explained for more information).

Learning Outcomes

On completion of this unit, you will be able to:

1. Apply knowledge of organic and inorganic chemistry to:
   1. predict chemical properties and reactivity in chemical and biological contexts
   2. propose mechanistic hypotheses for reactions
   3. develop synthetic approaches for the synthesis of organic molecules
   4. predict chemical properties and reactivity of s--- and p---block metal coordination and organometallic complexes
   5. Interpret simple chemical structures using qualitative molecular orbital theory
2. Analyse, interpret and predict spectral data to:
   1. determine structure of compounds prepared in the laboratory
   2. determine and differentiate molecular structure of compounds.
3. Demonstrate safe laboratory techniques and carry out hazard assessment for:
   1. synthesis, isolation and characterisation of organic and inorganic compounds
   2. collection of spectroscopic data and determination of physical properties
4. Communicate in scientific writing in the form of laboratory reports by:
   1. following the given templates
   2. using scientific terminology following the conventions for representing molecular structures and adhering to English conventions
   3. using chemical databases to perform literature searches and identify references accordingly.
