What is A family of organic compounds that are soluble in organic solvents but not water called?
lipid
Can you show me the organic structure of cetearyl alcohol and tell me what organic family it's in?
Cetearyl alcohol is actually a mixture of both stearyl alcohol and cetyl alcohol (refer to links below for structures). Both of these compounds would be considered "fatty alcohols" due to their long carbon chains. Fatty alcohols are in the aliphatic hydrocarbon family. To draw the structure of "cetearyl alcohol" you would actually have to draw the structure of cetyl alcohol and the structure of stearyl alcohol.
What are non-metals in the nitrogen family?
elements and compounds
Organic compounds uses in your daily life?
Materials that add to the comfort, health, or convenience of human beings are composed of organic compounds: clothing of cotton, wool, silk,and synthetic fibres; common fuels, such as wood, coal, petroleum, and natural gas; components of protective coatings, including varnishes, paints, lacquers, and enamels; antibiotics and synthetic drugs; natural and synthetic rubber; dyes; plastics; and pesticides.Source (see Related Link).

What is an alkylphenol?
An alkylphenol is any of a family of organic compounds obatained by the alkylation of phenols.
What family of what organic compounds would most likely be used as an illicit drug?
Aldehyde
A family of organic compounds characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group bonbed to an oxygen atom or OH group?
Alcohol
What family of organic compounds does agar belong?
A polysaccharide derived from algae cell walls. So, a sugar.
Is acrylic paint organic or non organic?
Organic Chemistry it is the branch of Chemistry that studies molecules with carbon atoms. Acrylic resins have the acryl functional group with structure H2C=CH-C(=O)-R derived from acrylic acid. Compounds containing an acryl group can be referred to as "acrylic compounds". Therefore, acrylic resins belong to this compounds' family.
Does the functional group hydroxyl contain nitrogen?
No. A hydroxyl group consists of an oxygen bonded to a hydrogen (-OH). A single hydroxyl group on an alkyl chain characterizes the alcohol family of organic compounds (i.e. ethanol: CH3CH2OH).
What group of biological compounds do sugars belong to?
To proteins Enzymes are usually proteins but some also contain nucleic acids (RNA in particular) and the list of chemical reactions that are catalyzed by RNA has been expanding.

What compounds contains a triple bond between the carbons?
Alkynes with a generic formula of CnH2n-2 are a family of hydrocarbons that all contain triple bonds.
What is the chemical nature of the pectic compounds that are present in plant tissue?
Pectins are a family of complex polysaccharides that contain 1,4-linked α-D-galactosyluronic acid residues.
Carbon bonding is almost entirely what?
Carbon based molecules are part of the family of compounds known as organic. Carbon bonding to other atoms is almost always of covalent nature; electrons are shared.
