Scope and sources

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

Redox (6.4 Core 1 to 5; Supplement 6 to 13): oxidation numbers from Roman numerals, oxidation and reduction as gain and loss of oxygen, of electrons and as changes in oxidation number, oxidising and reducing agents, and the colour tests with acidified potassium manganate(VII) and potassium iodide. Half-equations are in ELYS01, the reactivity series and displacement in REACT01, and the extraction of metals in EXTR01.

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