CHM2922Instrumental and forensic chemistry(SCI)
Dr Andrea Robinson 6 points + Three 1-hour lectures and the equivalent of 3 hours laboratory activity per week + Second semester + Clayton + Prerequisites: CHM1011 and CHM1022 or CHM1031 and CHM1042 or equivalent, or BMS1011 + Prohibitions: CHM2011, CHM2121, CHM2636, CHM2647 Synopsis: This subject initially examines experimental design, common instrumental features, essential terminology and data treatment. It explores the theory and instrumentation behind common instrumental techniques (IR, Raman, UV/Vis, mass, atomic and electron spectroscopies, microscopy, X-ray analysis, chromatography, flow methods) and then explores these techniques in chemical and forensic analysis. Forensic problems examined include the detection of accelerants at arson scenes, drug detection in sport, identification of microsamples at crime scenes. Practicals will provide problem solving in forensic chemistry. Guest lecturers and site visits will be an integral part of the subject. Assessment: Examination (3 hours): 60% + Computer tests: 10% + Laboratory reports: 30% |
