1.)Get a salt. smell it. then try to burn it. Put a pinch of salt in a water.

2.)Now get a naphthalene. smell it. then burn it. Get another naphthalene and put it in a water.

Salt(inorganic, polar) has no odor. it doesn't also burn but it dissolves in water.

Naphthalene is aromatic (most organic compounds has odor), can catch fire (because of carbon and hydrogen backbone) and doesn't dissolves in water because it is non-polar while H2O is polar (it has positive and negative ends) .therefore they are imiscible because like only dissolves like.

The primary differences between inorganic and organic chemical compounds?

Inorganic compounds generally do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds, while organic compounds do.
