Scope and sources

Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry 0620 · 2026–2028 v2 · Original learning materials.

Physical and chemical changes (6.1 Core 1): identifying physical and chemical changes and describing the difference in terms of whether any new substances have been made. Rates of reaction are in the next module, reversible reactions in 6.3 and the tests for gases in topic 12.

Apparatus, amounts and times in the experiment are illustrative. Real practical work follows a teacher-approved safety method.
