ORGANIC AND INORGANIC Although the number of inorganic compounds is huge, it is indeed overshadowed by the number of Organic Compound s — compounds which contain carbon and hydrogen bonded to each other, which comprise the vast majority of all compounds known. The Science of Chemistry is broadly divided into the two specialized fields of Organic and Inorganic chemistry which focus respectively on Organic and Inorganic compounds. Inorganic compounds and living organisms In the past it was believed that organic compounds are found only in (common salt), Carbonic Acid , Phosphate Ion s and many more. The study of metal compounds in living systems is called Bioinorganic Chemistry . xoxoxo INORGANIC CARBON COMPOUNDS Carbon compounds are sometimes erroneously considered to be all organic; many compounds that contain carbon, however, are defined as strictly inorganic: Carbon Monoxide , Carbon Dioxide , Carbonate s, to name but a few. All these compounds have no hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon. TYPES OF INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Major branches of inorganic compound groups include:
INORGANIC CHEMISTRY The field within which inorganic compounds are researched is called Inorganic Chemistry . Inorganic chemistry is divided into further branches based upon the type of materials and compounds being studied. The fields of organic and inorganic chemistry overlap in many cases particularly in Organometallic Chemistry . SEE ALSO |
