INORGANIC COMPOUNDS water-is the most abundant molecule in all organisms. -it also posses unique properties that make it highly essential in biological systems.. PROPERTIES OF WATER # ability to dissolve substances. water is a universal solvent. it can dissolve almost anything. # HYDROGEN-bonding ability. water molecules have an extensive network of hydrogen bonds. this network results in high heat capacity, high heat of evaporation, and high heat of fusion of water. acids-comes from the Latin word acidus meaning 'sour'. -may be classified as strong and weak. PROPERTIES IF ACIDS # they have a sour taste. # they turn blue litmus paper into red. # they react w/ active metals to form hydrogen gas. bases-have poperties that contrast thse of acids. bases are substances that yield hydroxide ions (OH-) in a water solution, while acids are substances that release hydrogen ions(H+). PROPERTIES OF BASES # they taste bitter and feel slippery. # they turn red litmus paper to blue. # like acids, they are also corrosive to the skin. salts
The 4 main types of an in organic compouns are *Water *Acids *Salts *Bases
Acids, Bases and Salts (oxides, chlorides, carbonates and sulphates)
water, acids, salts, bases
it is generally inorganic
Concrete is an inorganic mixture, of inorganic compounds.
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is definitely an inorganic compound. NB Organic compounds are the chemistry of CARBON compounds. Inorganic compounds is any other compound NOT containing carbon.
In general, organic compounds are those compounds which contain both carbon and oxygen, and inorganic compounds lack these atoms. Of couse, this does not always apply, as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide also contain both these elements and are still labeled as inorganic.
Water is classed as inorganic. Organic compounds have carbon in them.
Hydrocarbons
hardens, specific gravity and color.
they are inorganic
Organic and Inorganic Compounds .. .. .. .. .. I think.....
Inorganic chemistry is known as such because it does not include organic compounds. Some examples of organic compounds are carbon based compounds, hydrocarbons, and the derivatives of these two groups. Organic compounds generally include the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, the halogen group, and elements such as silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus.
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
Water, salt and ammonia are inorganic compounds.
Organic compounds contain carbon bonded to hydrogen. Inorganic compounds do not.
Water and carbon dioxide are inorganic compounds.
organic compounds are substances that have carbon in them. inorganic compounds don't.
they are inorganic
inorganic compounds are any compounds without carbon present
