Organic compounds are generally composed of long carbon chains displaying covalent bonds.
Carbohydrates, essential part of our diet.
Since it contains carbon in its composition, it is organic, and since it is a chain construction, it is an organic polymer. Such as PVC, Poly Vinyl Chloride; or PE, Poly Ethylene.

it is called an organic compound.

No, it is one molecule.However some large organic molecules (i.e. polymers) are formed from small organic molecules (i.e. monomers) that bond together into long chains, forming one new large molecule. The small molecules no longer exist as individual molecules after bonding into the large molecule.
It forms very strong bonds.
The thing about carbon is that it can form all kinds of carbon-carbon chains; this allows lots of interesting compounds, especially proteins, and a solution of proteins in water is fundamental to all life (as we know it).
The chemical carbon (C) is considered the building block of all organic molecules as it forms long chains due to it's ability to bond readily with other carbon atoms. These chains have hydrogen (H) bonded to them as well as other functional groups.
Carbon can bond with other carbon atoms making long carbon chains. Carbon can form strong pi-bonds allowing for double and triple bonds between carbon atoms as well, and the carbon-carbon pi-bonds can be delocalized for additional stability in rings.
lipids are organic. they are carbon chains.
Yes !
All organic molecules contain carbon and hydrogen.
Organic Chemistry is by definition "The Chemistry of compounds of Carbon". Note octane, and lipid chains; carbon may polymerize. Considering Nitrogen, just add it to the above to obtain Biochemistry!
You are probably referring to "organic" compounds. Organic chemistry is simply the study of carbon-containing compounds, but especially the study of carbon-hydrogen compounds, of which there are probably infinite possibilities when these two atoms are combined with other elements/radicals. This is partly because the carbon atom has a valence of 4, giving it many possibilities for bonding, and also because carbon can combine to itself to form very long chains called polymers. In any case, an organic compound is any compound that contains carbon.
Organics involve Carbon and chains of carbon. The general rule is that if the molecule has carbon, than it is an organic molecule.
All organic compounds DO in fact contain carbon.Carbon has the right characteristics to support large chains, including rings, that are necessary for these organic compounds.
Alkanes are carbon chains with no multiple bonds. Alkenes are carbon chains with double bonds. Alkynes are carbon chains with triple bonds.
In general organic compounds / substances / materials contain carbon atoms bonded with other atoms and/or those related to life. It is the chemistry of carbon containing compounds. Inorganic is everything else and generally do not contain carbon (with some exceptions).
The definition of organic compounds says that it must contain carbon molecules. There is no organic compound without carbon. So, carbon is called the backbone of organic compounds.Carbon has four electrons available for bonding, and in order to become stable, it must form four covalent bonds. Therefore, it has the ability to form chains. Carbon can have multiple hybridizations and bonding options.
Carbon atoms can form single, double, and triple bonds with each other, and they can form chains, branched chains, and rings. Carbon compounds also have hydrogen atoms as part of their structure, as well as other elements.
Carbon, these are called organic compounds.
