6 points + Two 1-hour lectures, one 1-hour tutorial and the equivalent of three hours of laboratory actvity per week + Second semester + Clayton on campus + Prerequisites: 12 points of level 1 chemistry and 12 points of level 2 chemistry + Corequisites: CHM3911, CHM3922 and another 6 points of level 3 chemistry + Prohibitions: students having completed CHM3031, CHM3042, CHM3051, CHM3062 should consult the coordinator.

Synopsis: See CHM3942/62/82 for an overall synopsis. The units available within these subjects are as follows: CHM3942: bioinorganic and organometallics in synthesis, or retrosynthetic methods; CHM3962: environmental air and soil chemistry, or environmental water and soil chemistry, or environmental air and water chemistry; CHM3982: colloids and advanced materials, or surfaces and heterogenous catalysis. Full subject descriptions will be available from the coordinator prior to enrolment and decisions on appropriate combinations should be made in consultation with the coordinator.

Assessment: Students will be required to carry out 50% of the assessment in each of the subjects from which the units are taken. This will require attending two separate exams. See the subject entries for CHM3942/62/82 for other assessment details.
