Question

Answer 1

Answer:

formed naturally are called organic compounds

inverse is inorganic // manmade

Answer 2

Answer:

Characteristics of organic compounds are as follows:

• These are mad up of only a few elements C, H, O, N, S, X. (Cl, Br, I)

• These involve covalent bonds.

• These are generally gases or liquids.

• They have low melting and boiling points.

• They are combustible.

• They show molecular reactions.

• They show isomerism.

• These are non - conductors of electricity.

• There are generally insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents.

Characteristics of inorganic compounds:

• These are made up of all known elements

• These involve ionic bonds

• They are generally solids.

• They have high melting and boiling point.

• They are non - combustible.

• They show ionic reactions.

• They don't show isomerism.

• These are generally good conductors of electricity.

• These are generally soluble in water but insoluble in organic solvents.
