Syllabus: Chemistry 184 is an extension to the fundamental nature of matter introduced in Chemistry 181. Students who have passed TEE Chemistry or equivalent should not take this unit. This unit broadens the concept of the physical nature of matter and the importance of carbon in chemistry by providing specific examples of discipline - specific molecular science. This unit covers a varying suite of topics that can be, in part, tailored to a students' area of study, including functional group organic chemistry, main group chemistry, the properties of gases, colligative properties, electrochemistry, the thermodynamics of equilibria and coordination chemistry.
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.
