What type of chemistry studies compounds that are based on the element carbon?
any element that has carbon in the molecular structure falls under organic chemistry.
What is a unsaturated compound?
An unsaturated organic compound is one which has double or triple bonds in Carbon atoms. When all the bonds are single then the compound is called saturated. In unsaturated compounds the carbon atom will be in sp or sp2 hybridised state and in saturated compounds the carbon will be in sp3 hybridised state. Unsaturated compounds are identified by the reaction with bromine water which is pink in color. The pink color is lost due to addition of Bromine to the multiple bond. Aromatic compounds like benzene also contain double bonds but not considered as unsaturated. They do not give addition reactions under normal conditions.
Does a carbonated drink contain carbon?
Yes. They are so called because they contain Carbon Dioxide gas under pressure, which is comprised of two oxygen molecules bonded to one carbon molecule (Molecular Formula is CO2. Also, organic chemicals are comprised of carbon chains with various molecules attached, so anything that contains organic compounds (ex. sugar) has carbon in it.
Large carbon molecules are built from smaller simpler molecules called?
The phenomena of formation of large carbon compounds by the addition of small molecules is called polymerization and the molecules are come under macromolecules as they possess molecular weight several to hundred thousands
What types of compounds conduct electricity when aqueous?
The compounds in question consist of CH2(OH)-CH(OH)-CH2(OH), AgNO3, BaCl2, and CH3OH. They are all soluble in water, however only AgNO3 and BaCl2 are ionic salts which will produce an electric current.
What category of carbon do enzymes fall under?
Enzymes are proteins.Note: RNA can also produce enzymatic reactions, but they are called ribozymes.
What category will compound zinc oxide go under rolled zinc or compounds?
Your question already answers itself.
What is a compound the contains carbon?
Most of them are in the category studied under organic chemistry. Please see the link.
What category does carbon dioxide volcanic activity moisture and acid rain fall under?
Chemical weathering.
Why carbon compounds are studied under organic chemistry?
Because carbon is one of the four organic molecules. The other three are hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.
What type of chemistry studies compounds that are based on the element carbon?
any element that has carbon in the molecular structure falls under organic chemistry.
What organic compounds do enzymes fall under?
Enzymes are Protein in Nature. Proteins are more precisely described as biochemical compounds. Some enzymes are combined with RNA to form for example Ribozymes. Enzymes, while completely composed from Organic Protein, are merely one Form of Protein.
What are the types of inorganic compound?
From Wikipedia (see link below):An organic compound is any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon; for historical reasons discussed below, a few types of compounds such as carbonates, carbon oxides and cyanides, as well as elemental carbon are considered inorganic.Here are a few of each:Organic Compounds:CH4 - methaneC2H6 - ethaneC2H4 - etheneC3H8 - propaneC3H6 - propeneC4H10 - butaneC6H6 - benzeneC7H8 - touleneC6H6O - phenolInorganic Compounds:NaCl - sodium chlorideCO2 - carbon dioxideH2O - waterNO2 - nitrogen dioxideHCl - hydrochloric acidCuCl2 - copper(II) chlorideFe2O3 - iron(III) oxideMgCl2 - magnesium chlorideSee the Related Questions and Web Links a database and some common groups of organic compounds.
Why is selenium the only element to have its own subcategory in WikiAnswers under 'Elements and Compounds'?
Apparently, that was only one that had enough questions to warrant and which someone requested the category.
Why are all living things considered organic?
That would be carbon. The definition of an organic molecule or compound is one that contains carbon. Exceptions are for carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and a few other carbon molecules by historic convention.
What category are the Quakers under?
Quakers fall under the category of Amish.
What is a common example of a compound in which carbon atoms are bonded to oxygen and hydrogen atoms?
Sugar is a common example of a compound with carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Compounds made from carbon, oxygen and hydrogen often fall under the category of carbohydrates, which are common to almost every living thing (including you!). Common table sugar is sucrose, and has the chemical formula C12H22O11. That's a common carb that you probably encounter daily.
