| UNIT REFERENCES, TEXTS, OUTCOMES AND ASSESSMENT DETAILS: | The most up-to-date information about unit references, texts and outcomes, will be provided in the unit outline. |
| Syllabus: | This unit is an introduction to the fundamental nature of matter for engineering students who have not previously studied chemistry. Students who have passed WACE Chemistry 3A/3B or equivalent should not take this unit. A range of chemical processes that underpin engineering disciplines will illustrate the importance of and differences between chemical and mathematical representations of reactions and reactivity. The physical phenomena resulting from bond types and their resulting intermolecular forces will explain the properties of human-made processes and materials. The role of the certain groups in ascribing reactivity and function of organic molecules will be highlighted using examples relevant to engineering. |
