Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Cyanide ion, carbonate ion, acetate ion can be considered as organic or not is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Compounds can be classified as organic and inorganic material on the basis of the material from which they are derived. 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.
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.
