H2O (water) is an inorganic compound; it was not created by living organisms nor first found in them. Water is a simple molecule; organic molecules are much more complex (such as lipids or carbohydrates, for example) and are created by living organisms.
Also, organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen.

∙ 14y agoNo water is not an organic molecule. Organic by definition means Carbon containing.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoNo because organic compounds contain carbon .
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoNo, organic molecules must have carbon in them.
Hydrogen gas is a pure element (as a molecule H₂) and does not contain carbon therefore is not organic.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoNo it is not. Organic compounds are those that specifically contain carbon.

Why are water molecules and oxygen molecules not attracted to each other?
water molecules are polar and are attracted to other polar molecules like water or glass. this means that it is only slightly more of one charge. hydrogen is slightly positive and oxygen is slightly negative. water looks like this: O H H water connects like this: H-hydrogen O-oxygen - is attraction O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O----H H H H----O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O----H H---O also something else to note is that oxygen is massive compared to hydrogen. size of oxygen compared to hydrogen (aproxamate): OOO OOO-oxygen atom H-hydrogen atom OOO oxygen molecules can either look 1 of 2 ways: OO- standard oxygen that we breath OOO- this oxygen molecule is the oxygen that u would breath if you were on a mountain so this would mean that an oxygen molecule is much larger than a water molecule and cannot connect because oxygen has no positive atoms, therefor not allowing it to connect with the 1 oxygen molecule in water
What is koh class inorganic or organic?
It is either organic nor a molecule. KOH contains potassium (K), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H), but not carbon (C) and a compound must contain carbon to be considered organic. Like all potassium compounds KOH is ionic, not molecular.
