3 elements most often found in organic compounds?
Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen.
What are three elements that are most often found in organic compounds?
Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen are the three main elements of organic compounds.
What are the multiple bonds How are multiple bonds found and why are they most often in those elements?
Organic compounds have frequently double or triple bonds.
What are the the common elements found in organic compounds?
Always C, H and often but not always O and also some other common elements in (bio)organics are N, P, S (not always present)
Organic compounds can have bonds?
Covalent bonds are common in organic compounds!
Is Hydrogen Peroxide organic or inorganic?
Only compounds are classified as organic or inorganic.The element hydrogen often occurs in organic compounds. It can also be found in inorganic compounds.All organic compounds contain the element carbon.
What element is present in organic compound but cannot be found in inorganic compounds?
Carbon. That is why organic chemistry is often called carbon chemistry.
How many organic elements are in the periodic table?
Elements are not usually defined as organic. Any MOLECULE containing CARBON (besides carbon dioxide) is considered organic. Many organic molecules also contain oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorous, and sometimes halogens or sulfur.
Is oxygen found in organic compounds?
Often but not always - e.g. all hydrocarbons DO NOT contain oxygen but sugars do
Oganic chemistry and organic compound?
Organic chemistry deals with compounds of the elements Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H). These form the main structures of all organic compounds (carbon especially) with additional functional groups of possible other elements attached.Hg is the abbreviation for mercury on the periodic table. The atomic number for mercury is 80.
What names the elements that combine to form a compound?
The chemical name of the compound is often based on the names of the elements that are part of it. However, for many simple organic compounds it is not possible to determine the component elements.
Is organic chemistry the study of all elements?
No, organic chemistry is the study of carbon compounds and their reactions. It primarily focuses on carbon-containing compounds, although some other elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and halogens are also often involved. Inorganic chemistry, on the other hand, deals with the study of all other elements and their compounds.
