IGCSE是目前國外14歲至16歲全世界較多人讀的體系，是CIE(Cambrige International examination)劍橋全球測試的一部分。
Energy change in chemical reactions
Activation energy Heat of reaction energy (kJ)
Progress of reaction
• Methane burns in oxygen: • CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) • Calculate the enthalpy change for this reaction using the following bond enthalpies / kJ mol-1: • C-H in methane = +435; O=O in oxygen = + 498; C=O in carbon dioxide = + 805; H-O in water = + 464

• A common means of forming small quantities of oxygen gas in the laboratory used to be to heat KClO3: • 2KClO3(s)→2KCl(s)+3O2(g) △H=-89.4kJ • For this reaction, calculate △H for the formation of • (a) 0.715mol of O2; • (b) 6.14g KCl;
Factors affecting the rate of reaction
• The surface area of any solid reactants • The concentration of the reactants • The temperature at which the reaction is carried out • The use of catalysts • The influence of light on some reactions.
Surface catalysts and collision theory
• Solid catalysts • One broad group of catalysts works by adsorbing molecules onto a solid surface.
• A catalyst increase the rate of reaction by reducing the amount of energy that it need to break the bonds.

Reaction pathway
The catalysed reaction follows a different route with a lower action energy .
Photochemical reactions
• Photosynthesis traps energy when sunlight falls on leaves containing the green pigment chlorophyll. • 6CO2+ 6H2O→C6H12O6 + 6O2
目前中國鮮有人知道IGCSE，大部分人知道的是SAT，因為SAT是進美國大學必不可少的。但是想進英系大學，如劍橋，牛津大學的人應關心一下。
