Online Homework 5- Organic Molecules

There are two major groups of molecules:

Inorganic and Organic

Inorganic molecules:

-Compounds that don't normally come from living things. -Often does NOT contain carbon. -Relatively small, simple molecules, example: CO2, H2O, O2, NH3, H2 -the compound will always return to its native state (liquid, gas, solid).

If this molecule were composed only of hydrogen and carbon, how many hydrogens will there be? C- -C- -C

8

In order to be an organic molecule, a molecule must contain:

At least one carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bond
