Why does organic compound have low melting point?

They usually are long "chains" of hydrocarbon that only attracted to the weakest intermolecular bonds. Bonds between molecules are generally weaker so they tend to melt faster when compare to the melting point of stronger intermolecular bonded molecules.


Do organic molecules have to contain the element calcium?

No, organic molecules do not have to contain calcium. Organic molecules are compounds primarily composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Calcium is an inorganic element and is not typically found in organic molecules.


Why are organic compounds considered to be organic?

Organic molecules are molecules that contain hydrogen and carbon. Macromolecules are considered to be organic compounds because they are made up of many carbon and hydrogen atoms put together.


Why organic compounds have low melting and bioling points?

Organic compounds generally are long hydrocarbon chains which are only attracted to each other by Van der Waals bonds which are the weakest intermolecular bonds. Since the bonds between molecules are weaker, they tend to melt much more quickly then stronger intermolecular bonded molecules.
