SCCHM1002 Chemistry 2
The contents of this unit focus on introductory-level organic and biomolecular chemistries as well as the chemistry of transition metals. On completion of this unit, students will have gained experience in the systematic naming of organic compounds and recognition of functional groups, as well as investigated the behaviour and reactivities of a number of different classes of organic molecules. Biologically significant molecules will feature as case studies in both organic and inorganic topics. Students will discuss the formation of transition metal complexes and rationalise their unique physical properties including colour and magnetism. The concepts developed within the lectures and tutorials are complemented through an integrated laboratory program where students will develop skills in laboratory techniques, scientific inquiry, and scientific communication.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $1,164
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $1,164
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
