Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The compounds
Concept introduction:
A compound is a chemical substance that is composed of atoms connected to each other by
Inorganic compounds are those compounds that consist of other elements than carbon or have no carbon-carbon bond in their structure. They are derived from minerals.
(b)
Interpretation:
Everyday definition of the term organic with an example of its use is to be determined and comparison with the chemical definition is to be done.
Concept introduction:
Compounds can be classified as organic and inorganic. The organic compound is the class of compound that has carbon-hydrogen bond or carbon-carbon long chains in their structure. They are derived from plants, animals and living organisms.

- 3 What type of organic molecule is this? ketone alcohol aldehyde O organic acidarrow_forwardKetones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides all have a carbon-oxygen double bond (often called a carbonyl group). Explain how these classifications of organic compounds are different from each other.arrow_forwardWhat three characteristics of carbon enable it to be found in millions of compounds?arrow_forward
- We see that 1-propanol and 2-propanol have the same molecular formula, C3H7OH, but different molecular structures. What is the name for molecules that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas (different shapes)? Use the specific term.arrow_forwardWhat does a functional group do in an organic molecule?arrow_forwardIdentify the functional group H₂N B он 0 NH₂ B a, amine b. ester c. carboxylic acid d. aldehyde e, alcohol f. ketone g. amidearrow_forward
