ACSCH089

Chemical systems may be open or closed and include physical changes and chemical reactions which can result in observable changes to the system

ACSCH089 | Content Descriptions | Unit 3 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH132

Designing chemical synthesis processes involves constructing reaction pathways that may include more than one chemical reaction

ACSCH132 | Content Descriptions | Unit 4 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

Unit 4: Structure, synthesis and design Chemistry

Current and future applications of chemistry include the development of specialised techniques to create, or synthesise, new substances to meet the specific needs of society, including pharmaceuticals, fuels, polymers and nanomaterials. In this unit, …

ACSCH104

Oxidation can be modelled as the loss of electrons from a chemical species, and reduction can be modelled as the gain of electrons by a chemical species; these processes can be represented using half-equations

ACSCH104 | Content Descriptions | Unit 3 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH138

Molecular manufacturing processes, including protein synthesis, involve the positioning of molecules to facilitate a specific chemical reaction; such methods have the potential to synthesise specialised products (for example, carbon nanotubes, nanorobots, …

ACSCH020

The properties of atoms, including their ability to form chemical bonds, are explained by the arrangement of electrons in the atom and in particular by the stability of the valence electron shell

ACSCH020 | Content Descriptions | Unit 1 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH035

Carbon forms hydrocarbon compounds, including alkanes and alkenes, with different chemical properties that are influenced by the nature of the bonding within the molecules

ACSCH035 | Content Descriptions | Unit 1 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH068

Varying the conditions present during chemical reactions can affect the rate of the reaction and in some cases the identity of the products

ACSCH068 | Content Descriptions | Unit 2 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH069

The rate of chemical reactions can be quantified by measuring the rate of formation of products or the depletion of reactants

ACSCH069 | Content Descriptions | Unit 2 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH072

Energy profile diagrams can be used to represent the enthalpy changes and activation energy associated with a chemical reaction

ACSCH072 | Content Descriptions | Unit 2 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH092

The reversibility of chemical reactions can be explained by considering the activation energies of the forward and reverse reactions

ACSCH092 | Content Descriptions | Unit 3 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH093

The effect of changes of temperature on chemical systems at equilibrium can be explained by considering the enthalpy changes for the forward and reverse reactions

ACSCH093 | Content Descriptions | Unit 3 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH094

The effect of changes of concentration and pressure on chemical systems at equilibrium can be explained and predicted by applying collision theory to the forward and reverse reactions

ACSCH094 | Content Descriptions | Unit 3 | Chemistry | Science | Senior secondary curriculum

ACSCH098

The strength of acids is explained by the degree of ionisation at equilibrium in aqueous solution, which can be represented with chemical equations and equilibrium constants (Ka)
