What else can I help you with?
What are the 4 organic compounds?
carbohydrates, lipids, protein, and nucleic acids.
What is the earth's most important natural material that help us live?
As living things, there is no single most important substance to our existence. The most important group of materials is no doubt organic compounds. Organic compounds make up our physical being, regulate or biological and biochemical function, and can even kill us. Carbon-based compounds provide us with energy (glucose, peptides, etc.) and oxygen (a diatomic gas) is responsible for the combustion in our cells to release ATP or life energy. Some materials may not be necessary for our survival, but there are thousands of compounds that we could not survive without!
What are three elements that are most often found in organic compounds?
Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen are the three main elements of organic compounds.
Which elements must all organic compounds contain?
All organic compounds contain the element carbon. By definition, organic chemistry is the study of chemical compounds that contain Carbon (C).
Carbon is most different from most other elements in that?
Carbon can form long chains and branched structures, allowing for diverse organic compounds. Additionally, carbon has the ability to form multiple bonds with other elements, leading to a wide range of chemical reactions and compounds. This versatility is what sets carbon apart from most other elements.
Explain why most carbon compounds are classified as organic compounds?
Organic compounds are compounds necessary to life, and most macromolecules necessary to life contain carbon.
Is one of the most important compounds necessary for life?
Water is one of the most important compounds neceesary for life.
Are organic compounds made of sugars or starches.?
Sugars and starches are organic compounds. But not all organic compounds are sugars and starches .
Group of organic compounds makes up most cell parts?
Yes, it is correct, life is organic chemistry.
Most of the compounds that contain carbon are called?
organic chemistry.
What is the most important periodic element and why?
carbon because all organic compounds are composed of it
What most likely to contain organic compounds?
living things are most likely to contain organic compounds
Why water is the most important?
Water has a polar molecule; this is the principal cause which favors the dissolution of hydrophilic compounds. Water is also a solvent for the most important organic compounds involved in biochemistry.
Is phosphorus in all organic compounds?
No. Most organic compounds do not contain phosphorus. While it is necessary for life, it is only necessary for a few organic compounds.
Why organic chemistry is so important to study of biology?
Organic Chemistry is important because most reactions in Biology are organic reactions. Organic Chemistry is the study of structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds. Biology is the study of biological organisms and processes. All biological organisms and processes are created, maintained and changed through chemical processes and are made up of chemical compounds. Without an understanding organic chemistry one cannot accurately and fully understand biology.
What is the difference organic and inorganic compounds?
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
Are most compounds that contain carbon are organic?
Yes almost 90% of the worlds compounds are organic.
