See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis subject covers introductory chemistry for students with no previous knowledge of chemistry. This subject explores the basic chemical concepts with a particular focus on bonding and structure as well as applying theories of chemical reactions and equilibria to perform basic chemical analyses. This subject provides an introduction to chemical principles sufficient to be used as a pre-requisite for a chemistry major, as a prerequisite for the Bachelor of Pharmacy, Bachelor of Marine and Antarctic Science (Marine biology major), Bachelor of Biomedicine and the Bachelor of Engineering as well as a core subject for the Bachelor of Agricultural Science and the Microbiology and Molecular Bioscience majors at the University of Tasmania. It is not designed to be a replacement for Year 12 Chemistry as it only covers topics of direct relevance as a background to the chemistry first-year subjects. Topics include fundamental chemical bonding theory, molecular geometry and interactions, reaction types and equilibria, introductory organic chemistry, and introductory thermodynamics. The laboratory program introduces basic techniques and skills commonly used in chemistry, along with reinforcing chemical concepts with practical experience. To complete this essential component of the subject, students must attend on campus to complete a set of laboratory exercises, offered at either the Hobart or Launceston campus.
