Organic compounds contain
carbon
, usually bonded to
Hydrogen
Inorganic compound usually didn't contain
Carbon
Inorganic carbon is carbon extracted from
ores
and
minerals
Organic carbon is found from nature from
plants
and
living
things
Organic compounds
include complex structures and high molecular weights
These are soluble in organic solvents and mostly insoluble in water =
