Hydrocarbons are one of the Earth's most important energy resources. The predominant use of hydrocarbons is as a combustible fuel source.
Mixtures of volatile hydrocarbons are now used in preference to the chlorofluorocarbons as a propellant for aerosol sprays, due to chlorofluorocarbons impact on the ozone layer.
Hydrocarbons are currently the main source of the world's electric energy and heat sources (such as home heating) because of the energy produced when burnt. Often this energy is used directly as heat such as in home heaters, which use either oil or natural gas. The hydrocarbon is burnt and the heat is used to heat water, which is then circulated. A similar principle is used to create electric energy in power plants.
As methane only releases one carbon dioxide for two water molecules, it is considered the cleanest fuel.
The disadvantages about organic compounds are very few.the major one to be brought in light is the issue about chloro floro carbon(cfc). cfc is an organic compound mostly used is aerosal sprays, in air conditioners (freon), this can cause depletion of ozone layer(holes)
Organic compounds are used for many different things. Daily life in today's world would be very hard to live in without organic compounds; in fact life would not be possible without organic compounds. For example, most of your body is made up of organic compounds. The food you eat is made up of organic compounds. Even the flavorings and colorings on processed food are organic.
One benefit of using organic compounds in society is that they can be easily created. One disadvantage is that they break down easily.
Some organic compound may have a longer structural formula which may be really difficult to remember. For example =
D-Glucose = H(CO)(CHOH)(HOCH)(CHOH)(CHOH)CH2OH
The meaning of life.... That is all!

Basically, organic compounds have carbon. Inorganic do not (though there are some exceptions)
Yes, lipids are organic compounds.
No. (sunlight is already energy).Chlorophyll is a chemical in plants that is involved in photosynthesis, using light energy to create nutrients that a plant needs to flourish.
Lipids are the class of organic compounds that stores energy as fat.
They have a higher boiling point and lower melting point and is flamable.
Chemosynthesis is a process by which some bacteria and other microorganisms use energy derived from chemical reactions to produce organic molecules, usually in the absence of sunlight. This process is commonly found in deep-sea ecosystems where sunlight does not penetrate and organisms rely on chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide or methane as energy sources.
Sugars and starches are organic compounds. But not all organic compounds are sugars and starches .
A polar organic compound is a molecule containing carbon and other elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur, which exhibit an uneven distribution of electron density due to differences in electronegativity. This results in a separation of partial positive and negative charges, making the molecule polar. Polar organic compounds are typically soluble in polar solvents and exhibit properties such as hydrogen bonding.
They are termed organic compounds. Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons and they are a subset of organic compounds.
Organic compounds are compounds that contain carbon.
Ozonolysis is the process of decomposition of some organic compounds using ozone.
Compounds having this molecular formula are organic compounds.
The other name for Carbon Compounds, is Organic Compounds.
The organic compounds dissolve in the organic fluids because they are polar.
Organic matter is a complex mixture of elements, primarily made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. It contains various compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Organic matter is not a single element, compound, or mixture, but a combination of different elements and compounds.
Studying organic compounds would involve lots of studying. Using flashcards and learning definitions of each compound will aid one in retaining this information.
Proteins are organic compounds.
