From Wikipedia (see link to the left):
"The name "organic" is a historical name, dating back to 19th century, when it was believed that organic compounds could only be synthesized in living organisms through vis vitalis - the "life-force". The theory that organic compounds were fundamentally different from those that were "inorganic", that is, not synthesized through a life-force, was disproved with the synthesis of urea, an "organic" compound by definition of its known occurrence only in the urine of living organisms, from potassium cyanate and ammonium sulfate by Friedrich Wöhler in the Wöhler synthesis. The kinds of carbon compounds that are still traditionally considered inorganic are those that were considered inorganic before Wöhler's time; that is, those which came from "inorganic" (i.e., lifeless) sources such as minerals."
Some carbon inorganic compounds are: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, diamond, graphite, fullerenes, cyanide, cyanate, thiocyanate, carbonate, and cabide.
Carbonates and carbon dioxide are considered inorganic despite containing carbon.
yes. such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonates, bicarbonates and inorganic (metal) carbides.
Salt (NaCl) is an inorganic compound that is found in nature as solid crystals.
Carbon dioxide is the only inorganic molecule that contains carbon.Actually carbon monoxide is another, and there is some doubt about the classification of materials like calcium carbide, silicon carbide, etc., which may be regarded as organic or inorganic depending on what you want to do with them.
Yes, metallic carbonates are basic compounds. When they dissolve in water, they release hydroxide ions, which can react with acids to form salts and water.
Carbonates and carbon dioxide are considered inorganic despite containing carbon.
No. Carbonates are considered to be inorganic.
yes. such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonates, bicarbonates and inorganic (metal) carbides.
carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide are both inorganic. So are carbonates, bicarbonates and metal carbides.
inorganic in nature
No, it is usually considered an inorganic compound. Most carbon compounds are organic but there are a few exceptions: its oxides and the carbonates and hydrogen carbonates are the principle examples.
Yes, inorganic compound contain carbon such as carbon dioxide, metal carbonates, metal bicarbonates,carbon monoxide and metal carbides
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbonic acid, carbonates, and bicarbonates are inorganic.
Yes, minerals are inorganic substances that are naturally occurring in nature.
No, this is organic. Usually only metal carbides, carbonates and hydrogen carbonates, plus carbonic acid, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are considered inorganic. This is an aromatic amine.
An organic compound is one where carbon is bonded to at least one hydrogen atom. In carbonates and bicarbonates the carbon is bonded to oxygen, in carbon disulphide it is bonded to sulfur.
Salt (NaCl) is an inorganic compound that is found in nature as solid crystals.
