Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Currently, organic compounds are defined as covalently bonded compounds containing carbon, excluding carbonates and oxides. By this definition, compounds such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are considered to be inorganic. Organic chemistry is the study of all organic compounds.
Detailed explanation-2: -No, it is inorganic. Organic compounds must be made of carbon and hydrogen along with some other elements.
Detailed explanation-3: -Carbon dioxide, CO2, is another example of an inorganic compound because it does not contain both carbon and hydrogen. One molecule of CO2 contains one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.
