Yes, H2O is a compound. A chemical compound has two diffferent elements chemically bound together in precisely defined relative quantities. In the case of H2O, it is two hydrogen atoms for every oxygen atom.

∙ 12y agoNo H2O (water) is covalent, as both hydrogen and oxygen are nonmetals.
Another way to think of it is that water is a liquid, and ionic compounds are solids at room temperature.

∙ 13y agoNo, H2O is inorganic. It contains only hydrogen and oxygen.
To be considered organic a compound must contain carbon.

Is H2O organic and why?
Water is an inorganic compound.
Which is an organic compound but is molecule?
There are several such molecules as H2O , NH3 , H2SO4 , SOCl2 etc.
Is the compound water h2O an organic cmpound?
No, it is aqueous. It contains no carbons, i.e. no carbon-hydrogen bonds
What is an organic compound salt chicken water silver?
None of those are organic compounds. An organic compound is one whose molecules contain carbon. Table Salt: NaCl Water: H2O Silver: Ag Chicken contains organic compounds, but since there isn't a "chicken molecule," I wouldn't consider chicken an organic compound.
What is the formula for binary molecular compound?
Binary compound: a chemical compound with only two types of atoms; examples: NaCl, HCl, CaS, H2O.
Is H2O organic?
H2O is an inorganic compound. All organic compounds contain carbon (C).
H2O an organic compound?
Organic compounds should contain Carbon.So it is not organic.
Why is h2o organic?
Water is an inorganic compound.
Is H2O organic and why?
Water is an inorganic compound.
Is H2O an organic or an inorganic compound?
Water is classed as inorganic. Organic compounds have carbon in them.
Is water a organic compound found in cells?
Water (H2O) is comprised of hydrogen and oxygen and is thus not an organic compound. BY definition, organic compounds contain a carbon atom ("C").
Why is water not an organic compound?
Water is H2O, meaning it is made of hydrogen and oxygen. In order to be considered organic a compound must contain carbon (C)
