IFC is an ouput file. So opening it in an older version of Revit will not turn it (fully) back into Revit elements.
So it is norrmally only used as underlay/reference. Do not expect to be able to use it for modelling.

If you want to see more parameters then you should look at your IFC export settings.
Look at the property sets tab on your IFC export settings

For example you can try to check "Export Revit Property Sets"
