Module 8 | Applying chemical ideas
Content 2: Analysis of organic substances
Lesson 1 | Testing for functional groups
-
conduct qualitative investigations to test for the presence in organic molecules of the following functional groups:
– carbon–carbon double bonds
– hydroxyl groups
– carboxylic acids (ACSCH130)
Lesson 2 | More analytical techniques
-
investigate the processes used to analyse the structure of simple organic compounds addressed in the course, including but not limited to:
– proton and carbon-13 NMR
– mass spectroscopy (ACSCH19)
– infrared spectroscopy (ACSCH130)
