When methane is oxidized to carbon dioxide its oxidation number changes from −4 to +4. ... In oxidation electrons are removed and the electron density of a molecule is reduced. In reductions electron density increases when electrons are added to the molecule. This terminology is always centered on the organic compound.

Electrons in an organic redox reaction often are transferred in the form of a hydride ion - a proton and two electrons. ... Conversely, when a carbon atom in an organic compoundgains a bond to hydrogen and loses a bond to a heteroatom (or to another carbon atom), we say that the compound has been hydrogenated, or reduced.
Organic compounds are molecules associated with living organisms. These include carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, proteins, enzymes, and hydrocarbon fuels. Organic compounds are broadly classified as natural and synthetic compounds. Further, they are subdivided by the presence of heteroatoms, such as organometallic (carbon atoms bonded to metals) and organophosphorous compounds (carbon atoms bonded to phosphorous). They are also classified as small molecules or large macromolecules (polymers) based on their size. Organic natural compounds are derived from plants and animals and include primary metabolites, such as sugars and carbohydrates, fats and lipids, peptides and proteins, nucleic acids, and a whole range of secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and vitamins. Synthetic compounds are chemically synthesized by reaction of compounds. Most polymers (a category that includes all plastics and rubbers) are organic, synthetic, or semi-synthetic compounds. Generally, organic compounds possess carbon–carbon bonds, carbon–hydrogen bonds, as well as covalent bonds between carbon and oxygen, and nitrogen.
Examples of some organic compounds: leucine, sphingolipids, palmitic acid, sucrose, glycogen, DNA, glutathione, diosgenin, caffeine, morphine, and so on.
Inorganic compounds are compounds which do not contain carbon and are not derived from living matter. They include substances made from single elements, salts, metals, and any other compound that do not contain carbon bonded to hydrogen. Generally, inorganic compounds are derived from geological systems, such as sediments and ores. Inorganic compounds are not covalently bonded and exhibit ionic characters. Due to ionic bonding, typically found in inorganic compounds, they are held together very rigidly and possess extremely high melting and boiling points. Inorganic compounds are able to conduct electricity, s ince they contain metals (alkali, alkaline, transition, etc.). Other characteristic features of inorganic compounds are that they are highly colored, and have the ability to form crystals.
Examples of some inorganic compounds: i ron, copper sulfate, lead acetate, sodium chloride, platinum, and so on.
