What is the defining characteristic of organic molecules?
Organic chemistry is defined as 'the chemistry of compounds of Carbon'. Or, more accurately, compounds containing carbon-hydrogen bonds. (For example, carbon dioxide doesn't count as organic.)
Are organic compounds formed with ionic bonds?
Organic compounds tend NOT to be ionic - there are exceptions. Organic Chemistry is defined as the Chemistry of Compounds of Carbon. Ionic forces tend to intercede when we add Oxygen.
What compounds have saturated bonds?
Organic compounds with single bonds have saturated bonds. Unsaturated bonds are double or triple bonds. Compounds with saturated bonds have the maximum number of atoms that can be bond.
What compounds appeared to be joined by covalent bonds?
For example organic compounds.
What kind of solid tends to have the lowest melting points?
Molecular compounds tend to have the lowest melting points.
What characteristic of carbon atoms helps us explain the wide variety of organic compounds?
Covalent Bonds
Organic compounds can have bonds?
Covalent bonds are common in organic compounds!

Are organic compounds formed with ionic bonds?
Organic compounds tend NOT to be ionic - there are exceptions. Organic Chemistry is defined as the Chemistry of Compounds of Carbon. Ionic forces tend to intercede when we add Oxygen.
Are ionic bonds generally found in organic compounds?
No. Organic compounds are almost exclusively covalent.
What compounds have saturated bonds?
Organic compounds with single bonds have saturated bonds. Unsaturated bonds are double or triple bonds. Compounds with saturated bonds have the maximum number of atoms that can be bond.
What compounds appeared to be joined by covalent bonds?
For example organic compounds.
Do inorganic compounds contain Carbon- Hydrogen bonds?
No. Carbon-hydrogen bonds are found in organic compounds.
What kind of solid tends to have the lowest melting points?
Molecular compounds tend to have the lowest melting points.
What are organic compounds with double or triple bonds classified as?
Organic compounds with double bonds are classified as alkenes, and end with the suffix -ene, such as pentene or butene. Compounds with triple bonds are called alkynes, and end with -yne, such as octyne or propyne.
What chemical bonds hold cinnamon together?
Organic compounds have covalent bonds.
What are functional groups responsible for?
Functional groups are an aspect of organic chemistry that signifies the specific groups of atoms and bonds in molecules that are responsible for the characteristic behaviors of the class of compounds that the group is in.
