What is another name for carbon compounds?

The other name for Carbon Compounds, is Organic Compounds.


What is the name of compounds that contains carbon?

They are termed organic compounds. Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons and they are a subset of organic compounds.


Which element is considered the foundation for making organic compounds?

Carbon is fundamental to all organic compounds. Organic compounds contain one or more C-H or C-C bonds. All organic compounds contain carbon, but not all carbon-containing compounds are organic, such as carbon dioxide.Carbon is the foundation for making organic compounds. Every organic contains carbon. Hydrogen is also present in every organic compound.


Do inorganic compounds contain Carbon- Hydrogen bonds?

No. Carbon-hydrogen bonds are found in organic compounds.


Carbon dioxide contains carbon yet it is considered to be inorganic Why?

Organic compounds are actually compounds containing carbon covalently bonded with a hydrogen. You can say carbon is the main thing here. Compounds of carbon [except oxides, carbonates, bicarbonates] are termed as organic. Water does not contain a carbon atom. So it is inorganic. Carbon dioxide is considered by chemists as inorganic, along with carbon monoxide, carbonates and bicarbonates. Nature has not distinguished compounds into inorganic and organic compounds that clearly. These compounds of carbon are just assumed to be inorganic. Also there is that one thing about carbon being covalently bonded with hydrogen in organic compounds. Due to that criteria carbon dioxide is considered inorganic. But actually there is no clear reason.

Enumerate and define the different branches of chemistry?

One branch is organic chemistry, which studies carbon and its compounds. Carbon compounds make up much of the world. Inorganic chemistry, another branch, studies all properties and characteristics of other elements. Analytical chemistry analyzes and identifies substances. Physical chemistry studies the laws and principles governing physical and chemical changes, and biochemistry studies the materials found in living organisms.

What are the difference between organic and inorganic compounds?

Basically, all organic compounds have carbon and organic chemistry is the study of carbon based comounds. Inorganic generally do not contain carbon (with exceptions being carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, metal carbonates, metal bicarbonates and metal carbides).


What is the process by which low energy compounds are transfered into high energy compounds?

defacation, or extrenuation depending on whether you're a chemist (extrenuation, C ions moving from one molecule to the other) or a biologist (defacation, where plants absorb carbon and turn it into atp.)
