IGCSE化学0620大纲（适用于2026至2028年考试）为化学的核心原理奠定了坚实的基础。本文回顾每个学生都必须掌握的基本概念，从原子结构和化学键到化学计量、电解、能量变化、酸碱以及有机化学入门。无论你是开始复习还是需要快速回顾，这些关键思想都是取得成功的必备知识。
1. Atoms, Elements and Compounds | 原子、元素和化合物
All matter is made up of atoms, the smallest particles of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. An element is a substance that contains only one type of atom. Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements chemically combine in fixed proportions. Mixtures contain two or more substances that are not chemically combined and can be separated by physical methods.
所有物质都由原子构成，原子是能够参与化学反应的元素的最小粒子。元素是只含有一种原子的物质。当不同元素的原子以固定比例化学结合时，就形成了化合物。混合物含有两种或多种没有化学结合的物质，可以通过物理方法分离。
2. Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table | 原子结构和周期表
Atoms consist of a central nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in shells. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons are neutral, and electrons are negative. The atomic number (Z) is the number of protons, which determines the element. The mass number (A) is the total number of protons and neutrons. Electrons are arranged in shells (2, 8, 8, etc.) and the outer-shell electrons determine chemical properties.
原子由一个包含质子和中子的中心原子核以及核外分层排布的电子组成。质子带正电，中子不带电，电子带负电。原子序数（Z）是质子数，决定了元素的种类。质量数（A）是质子数和中子数的总和。电子按层排布（2, 8, 8 等），最外层电子决定了化学性质。
The Periodic Table arranges elements in order of increasing atomic number. Elements in the same group have the same number of outer-shell electrons and similar chemical properties. Periods correspond to the number of electron shells. Metals are on the left, non‑metals on the right. Group I (alkali metals) and Group VII (halogens) are especially important.
周期表按原子序数递增的顺序排列元素。同一族的元素具有相同的最外层电子数和相似的化学性质。周期对应电子层数。金属位于左侧，非金属位于右侧。第I族（碱金属）和第VII族（卤素）尤为重要。
3. Ionic Bonding | 离子键
Ionic bonding occurs between metals and non‑metals. Metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions (cations), while non‑metal atoms gain electrons to form negative ions (anions). The electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions forms a giant ionic lattice. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points and conduct electricity when molten or in aqueous solution because the ions are free to move.
离子键发生在金属和非金属之间。金属原子失去电子形成阳离子（正离子），非金属原子得到电子形成阴离子（负离子）。带相反电荷的离子之间的静电引力形成巨大的离子晶格。离子化合物具有高熔点和高沸点，在熔融或水溶液中能导电，因为离子可以自由移动。
4. Covalent Bonding and Metallic Bonding | 共价键和金属键
Covalent bonding occurs between non‑metal atoms. Atoms share pairs of electrons to achieve a full outer shell. Simple molecular substances (e.g. H₂O, CO₂, CH₄) have low melting and boiling points because of weak intermolecular forces, while giant covalent structures (e.g. diamond, graphite, silicon dioxide) have very high melting points due to strong covalent bonds throughout the lattice. Graphite can conduct electricity because each carbon atom has one delocalised electron.
共价键发生在非金属原子之间。原子共用电子对以达到稳定的最外层结构。简单分子物质（如水、二氧化碳、甲烷）具有低熔点和沸点，因为分子间作用力较弱；而巨型共价结构（如金刚石、石墨、二氧化硅）由于晶格中遍布强共价键而具有极高的熔点。石墨能够导电，因为每个碳原子有一个离域电子。
Metallic bonding is the electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and a sea of delocalised electrons. This explains why metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, and can be bent and shaped (malleable and ductile).
金属键是金属阳离子与离域电子海之间的静电引力。这解释了为什么金属是热和电的良导体，并且可以被弯曲和塑造（具有延展性和展性）。
5. Writing Chemical Equations | 书写化学方程式
Chemical reactions can be represented by word equations or symbol equations. A balanced symbol equation shows the formulas of reactants and products with coefficients to ensure the number of each type of atom is the same on both sides. State symbols (s), (l), (g) and (aq) indicate solid, liquid, gas and aqueous solution.
化学反应可以用文字方程式或符号方程式表示。一个配平的化学方程式显示了反应物和生成物的化学式，并通过系数确保两边每种原子的数目相等。状态符号 (s)、(l)、(g) 和 (aq) 分别表示固体、液体、气体和水溶液。
2Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2MgO (s)
Solid magnesium reacts with oxygen gas to form solid magnesium oxide. Here, two magnesium atoms combine with one oxygen molecule to produce two formula units of magnesium oxide.
固态镁与氧气反应生成固态氧化镁。这里，两个镁原子与一个氧分子结合，生成两个单位的氧化镁。
6. The Mole and Molar Calculations | 摩尔和摩尔计算
The mole is the unit for amount of substance. One mole of any substance contains 6.02 × 10²³ particles (Avogadro’s constant). The molar mass of a substance is the mass of one mole, with units g/mol. The number of moles can be calculated using: moles = mass / molar mass. For gases at room temperature and pressure (r.t.p.), one mole occupies 24 dm³. Concentrations in mol/dm³ can be found from moles = concentration × volume (in dm³).
摩尔是物质的量的单位。任何物质的一摩尔含有 6.02 × 10²³ 个粒子（阿伏伽德罗常数）。物质的摩尔质量是一摩尔的质量，单位为 g/mol。摩尔数可以用公式：摩尔数 = 质量 / 摩尔质量 计算。在常温常压下，一摩尔气体占据 24 dm³。浓度（mol/dm³）可以通过摩尔数 = 浓度 × 体积（dm³）求得。
These relationships are used in titration calculations and to determine empirical and molecular formulas. Key steps: convert given mass to moles, find simplest ratio, and then calculate.
这些关系用于滴定计算以及确定实验式和分子式。关键步骤：将给定质量换算成摩尔，找出最简比，然后进行计算。
7. Electrolysis | 电解
Electrolysis is the decomposition of an ionic compound when molten or in aqueous solution by passing an electric current. Inert electrodes (often graphite or platinum) are used. Cations move to the cathode (negative electrode) and are reduced; anions move to the anode (positive electrode) and are oxidized. The products depend on the reactivity series and the concentration of ions.
电解是通过电流使熔融或水溶液中的离子化合物分解的过程。使用惰性电极（通常为石墨或铂）。阳离子移向阴极（负极）并被还原；阴离子移向阳极（正极）并被氧化。产物取决于金属活动性顺序和离子的浓度。
Molten NaCl: Cathode: Na⁺ + e⁻ → Na ; Anode: 2Cl⁻ → Cl₂ + 2e⁻
In aqueous copper(II) sulfate with inert electrodes, copper is deposited at the cathode and oxygen gas forms at the anode. The blue colour fades as Cu²⁺ ions are discharged.
在使用惰性电极的硫酸铜水溶液中，铜在阴极析出，阳极生成氧气。随着Cu²⁺离子放电，蓝色逐渐褪去。
8. Energy Changes and Reaction Rates | 能量变化与反应速率
Exothermic reactions release energy to the surroundings, causing a temperature rise (e.g. combustion, neutralisation). Endothermic reactions absorb energy, so the temperature falls (e.g. photosynthesis, thermal decomposition). Enthalpy change (ΔH) is negative for exothermic and positive for endothermic reactions. Energy profile diagrams show activation energy and overall energy change.
放热反应向环境释放能量，导致温度升高（如燃烧、中和反应）。吸热反应吸收能量，因此温度下降（如光合作用、热分解）。焓变（ΔH）在放热反应中为负，吸热反应中为正。能量曲线图显示了活化能和总能量变化。
The rate of a reaction depends on collision frequency and the fraction of collisions with energy greater than the activation energy. Factors affecting rate: temperature, concentration (or pressure for gases), surface area of solids, and use of a catalyst. Catalysts provide an alternative pathway with lower activation energy, increasing the rate without being consumed.
反应速率取决于碰撞频率以及能量高于活化能的碰撞比例。影响速率的因素有：温度、浓度（或气体的压强）、固体的表面积以及催化剂的使用。催化剂提供了一条活化能较低的替代途径，从而加快速率而本身不被消耗。
9. Acids, Bases and pH | 酸、碱和pH值
Acids are proton (H⁺) donors; they have a pH less than 7. Common acids include hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) and nitric acid (HNO₃). Bases are proton acceptors; alkalis are soluble bases that release OH⁻ ions in water. The pH scale indicates acidity or alkalinity. Indicators such as litmus, phenolphthalein and methyl orange are used to test pH.
酸是质子（H⁺）的供体；它们的pH值小于7。常见的酸包括盐酸（HCl）、硫酸（H₂SO₄）和硝酸（HNO₃）。碱是质子的受体；可溶于水的碱称为碱，在水中释放 OH⁻ 离子。pH标度表示酸碱度。石蕊、酚酞和甲基橙等指示剂用于检测pH值。
Neutralisation is the reaction between an acid and a base to form a salt and water: H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O. Titration is used to find the concentration of an acid or alkali by neutralisation.
中和反应是酸和碱反应生成盐和水的过程：H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O。滴定法通过中和反应来测定酸或碱的浓度。
10. Salts and Preparation Methods | 盐及其制备方法
Salts are ionic compounds formed when the hydrogen of an acid is replaced by a metal or ammonium ion. Preparation methods depend on the solubility of the salt. For a soluble salt, use a soluble base (alkali) and acid in titration, or an insoluble base (metal oxide/hydroxide/carbonate) and acid with filtration and crystallisation. Insoluble salts can be made by precipitation (mixing two solutions containing the required ions).
盐是酸中的氢被金属或铵离子取代后形成的离子化合物。制备方法取决于盐的溶解度。对于可溶性盐，可使用可溶性碱（碱溶液）与酸通过滴定法，
