Mrs Nicola Williams
4 points * Two 1-hour lectures and the equivalent of one 2.5 -hour laboratory per week * First semester * Clayton * Prerequisites: CHM1011 and CHM1022 or CHM1031 and CHM1042 * Prohibition: CHM2041
Objectives At the completion of this subject students will be able to apply chemical principles to the solution of problems in the environmental and analytical sciences; appreciate the relationship between chemistry and subjects using chemical analysis such as physical geography, geology, geophysics, physics, materials science etc.; understand specific topics such as environmental chemistry, spectroscopic methods, methods of analysis; and master more advanced laboratory skills and techniques related to the subject.
Synopsis This subject is designed to extend a general knowledge of chemistry into various environmental applications, and provides an introduction to environmental chemistry, analytical chemistry and spectroscopy. It is a useful backup subject for major subjects such as physical geography, geology, chemistry, physics and materials science. Units taught by different lecturers include the role of environmental chemistry, spectroscopic methods, and methods of analysis. Details of the units may be obtained from the department at enrolment. Practical work is an integral part of the subject. Some units may have a written assignment as part of their assessment.
Assessment Examinations (1 x 2.5 hours): 80% * Other assessment: 20%
