Core or Extended: Which Route?
Core students sit Papers 1 and 3; Extended students sit Papers 2 and 4. The practical component is Paper 5 or the written Alternative to Practical, Paper 6. Extended content is called the Supplement. The paper table above gives durations and marks.
| Route | Papers | Practical | Usually suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core | Paper 1 and Paper 3 | Paper 5 or Paper 6 | A secure pass without Supplement content |
| Extended | Paper 2 and Paper 4 | Paper 5 or Paper 6 | Students aiming for top grades or A Level Chemistry |
IGCSE Chemistry Topics Our Tutors Cover
Core and Extended share the topics; Extended goes further.
| Topic area | What lessons work on |
|---|---|
| States of matter | Particle model, changes of state, diffusion |
| Atoms, elements and compounds | Atomic structure, bonding, structure and properties |
| Stoichiometry | Formulae, equations, the mole, concentration and gas volumes |
| Electrochemistry | Electrolysis, cells and their uses |
| Chemical energetics and reactions | Energy changes, rates of reaction, reversible reactions, redox |
| Acids, bases and salts | Properties, preparation of salts, titration |
| The Periodic Table and metals | Group trends, reactivity series, extraction and alloys |
| Organic chemistry | Alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, polymers |
| Experimental techniques and analysis | Separation, purity, identification of ions and gases |
| Chemistry and the environment | Water, air, fertilisers, greenhouse gases |
Where Students Lose Marks in IGCSE Chemistry
These are the repeat leaks in 0620 papers.
| Where marks go | What usually causes it | The fix |
|---|---|---|
| State symbols | Leaving them out of equations or ionic equations when asked | Add (s), (l), (g), (aq) as part of writing every equation |
| Mole calculations | Wrong ratio or unit slip between cm³ and dm³ | Moles, ratio, then answer, with units on each line |
| Organic formulae | Missing hydrogens or bonds in structures | Draw every bond and count bonds per carbon |
| Energetics (Extended) | Subtracting the wrong way, so exothermic reactions look endothermic | Bonds broken minus bonds formed, then check the sign matches the story |
| Paper 6 variables | Not saying what was changed, measured and kept constant | Write independent, dependent and control variables in every plan |
| Supplement content | Not knowing which topics only Extended students sit | Mark Supplement items on the topic list at the start |
IGCSE Chemistry 0620 vs O Level 5070
Many Lahore schools teach IGCSE for some subjects and O Level for others. IGCSE 0620 has Core and Extended; O Level 5070 has Papers 1, 2 and a practical paper. Check the code on your child’s timetable; for 5070 see our O Level Chemistry tutors.
Practical or Alternative to Practical
Schools enter students for Paper 5 (a practical test) or Paper 6 (a written Alternative to Practical). The tutor rehearses tables, observations, titration reasoning and describing a safe method, while the actual practical session happens in school.
How We Teach IGCSE Chemistry
Teaching moves from the topic to exam questions on it, marked against the mark scheme. Supplement material gets its own labelled block so Core students are not overloaded.
A worked example from Extended: energetics
Methane burns: CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O. Use these bond energies (kJ/mol): C–H 412, O=O 496, C=O 805, O–H 463. Calculate the energy change.
Bonds broken: 4 × 412 + 2 × 496 = 1648 + 992 = 2640 kJ. Bonds formed: 2 × 805 + 4 × 463 = 1610 + 1852 = 3462 kJ. Energy change = 2640 − 3462 = −822 kJ/mol, so the reaction is exothermic. The usual slip is subtracting the other way and writing +822.
