610-122 Chemistry (Advanced)

Credit points: 12.5

Coordinator: Dr V McRae

Prerequisite: 610-121 or equivalent

Contact: 39 lectures (3 per week), Six 3-hour sessions practical work, 12 hours tutorials, 18 hours problem solving/computer-aided learning

Timetable: Second semester

Objectives:

On completion of 610-122, 610-142 or 610-162 the student should:

Comprehend:

• the place of chemistry in society and the physical environment;
• the nature of chemical equilibria;
• the nature of chemical change;
• the reactivity of organic molecules;
• the structure and reactivity of metal compounds.

Have developed:

• basic laboratory skills (observation, analytical technique, report writing);
• oral communications skills;
• independent learning skills.

Content:

Change: reaction rates and equilibria; acid-base chemistry; liquids and solids; chemistry of metals; redox chemistry; reactivity of organic molecules; the molecules of life.

Assessment:

A 3-hour written examination at the end of Semester 2. Practical work and workshops are continuously assessed and together represent 20 per cent of the final assessment. Practical and workshop assignments must be completed satisfactorily before credit can be granted for the subject.
