Explanation:

An inorganic compound is typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen bonds, that is, a compound that is not an organic compound. Some simple compounds that contain carbon are often considered inorganic. Examples of inorganic compounds include carbon monoxide , carbon dioxide , carbonates, carbides , cyanides, cyanates, and thiocyanates. Most of these compounds are normal parts of mostly organic systems, including living organisms. When a chemical substance is classified as inorganic, it does not necessarily mean that it does not occur within

living things.

Organic compounds typically contain the carbon-hydrogen bonds. The carbon atoms often catenate and most organic substances occur in living systems and are products of biochemical reactions in living organisms. However, organic substances can also be synthetic and can be prepared in the laboratory.
