+4 (in most inorganic compounds) and -4 or -3 (in organic compounds)
There are 2 elements that all the organic compounds have. They are carbon and hydrogen. Most organic compounds contain oxygen.
Every single organic thing contains carbon.
Compounds containing carbon are referred to as organic compounds
It is carbon!
Compounds that contain no carbon are inorganic.
Just to make sure I'm covering all senses of the question, I'll give you three 3-carbon compounds: Propane Isopropane 1-chloropropane
these are carbon compounds not found in living things
Basically, all organic compounds have carbon and organic chemistry is the study of carbon based comounds. Inorganic generally do not contain carbon (with exceptions being carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, metal carbonates, metal bicarbonates and metal carbides).
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
it contains carbon and hydogen.inorganic compounds do not contain carbon.
No, not all compounds of Carbon contain Hydrogen, for instance Carbon Dioxide does not and neither does Carbon Tetraflouride.
