The video explores whether water (H2O) is an organic or inorganic molecule. It defines organic compounds as those containing carbon, which water lacks, classifying it as inorganic. Despite this, water shares characteristics with organic compounds, such as being a molecular compound with covalent bonds. The video concludes that water is inorganic due to the absence of carbon.

What is the primary element that organic compounds must contain?

• Carbon

• Oxygen

• Nitrogen

• Hydrogen

Why is water considered an inorganic molecule?

• It has oxygen
