Are organic compounds made of sugars or starches.?
Sugars and starches are organic compounds. But not all organic compounds are sugars and starches .
Does a virus have organic molecules?
Any living organism, in this case 'worms', are all organic in nature. The basis of calling them organic is presence of life in them and if consider it chemically, then they have organic compounds as their constituent building blocks. This is the reason they are called organic.
What are four classes of organic compounds found in all living things?
Lipids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, Nucleic acids
What is a feature of organic compounds not found in inorganic compounds is the presence of what?
Carbon.
Why is it more difficult to test for the presence of chloride in organic compounds than in inorganic compounds like HCl?
Why is it difficult to test the presence of chloride in organic compounds than in inorganic ones like hydrochloric acid?
What has the author Peter Sellers written?

Organic compounds break down spontaneously in the presence of?
Oxygen
Why is it more difficult to test for the presence of chlorine in organic compounds than in inorganic compounds?
because chlorine is not organic compound it is an in organic compound and organic compound dissolves only in organic compound so therefore it is too difficult
Is carbonyl polar?
Carbonyl is moderately polar. Carbonyl is found in organic chemistry and is a group that is composed of atoms and carbons.
Would organic compounds essential for life be able to assemble in the presence of hydrogen?
absolutely
What is a ferrox test?
A test for the presence of oxygen for organic compounds which contain the element carbon.
What are aldols?
Aldols are organic compounds characterized by the presence of an hydroxyl (-OH) groupe attached to the alpha carbon of an aldehyde (-CHO). Aldols can be synthesized via an aldol condensation reaction, in which are involved two aldehydes and a basic catalyst.
What type of matter is formaldehyde correctly classified?
Formaldehyde, HCHO, is an example of an aldehyde (or carbonyl compounds)
What is polar organic compound?
organic compounds are basically composed of carbon atoms.polar organic compounds are those compounds in which the organic compounds have the properties of polar compounds.
