In general, if a compound contains carbon it is organic. The reason for this is that carbon is considered to be the building block of life, and inorganic compounds are said to be more mineral than biological. There are, however, a few cases of carbon-containing compounds which are considered inorganic because of convention, some being carbonates, simple oxides of carbon, cyanides and the allotropes of carbon.
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).

It's arbitrary (and some chemicals are classed as both);
but in general organic contains carbon molecules 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).
All organic compounds contain carbon, hydrogen, inorganics do not.
Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not.
Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not (though there are some exceptions).
animals are always considered to be organic, though they have inorganic compounds in them

Lecithin is an organic compound.

No. The difference between an organic and an inorganic compound, ionic or otherwise, is that an organic compound contains carbon bonded with hydrogen while an inorganic compound does not.

Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not.
Like dissolves like. So organic compounds are generally soluble in organic solvents whereas inorganic compounds are more soluble in inorganic solvents (though there are plenty of exceptions to this).
Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not.
Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not.
In general, organic compounds are those compounds which contain carbon (with few exceptions). Inorganic compounds do not
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
Do you mean how is an organic compound different from an inorganic compound? If so, an organic compound has carbon, an inorganic compound does not need to have carbon.
