 What is inorganic compound?
From the word “Inorganic” which means not arising from
natural growth and “Compounds” or a mixture.
INORGANIC COMPOUNDS means in chemistry is
typically a chemical compound that lacks carbon–hydrogen
bonds. The study of inorganic compounds is a subfield of
chemistry known as inorganic chemistry.

 Inorganic compound
However, there are compounds that contain
carbon but can’t be classified as organic as it is
inorganic like the following: carbonates,
cyanides, cyanates, carbides, thiocyanates,
carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.

 Inorganic compound
You want to know why? It is because inorganic
compounds include certain carbon-containing
compounds that lack carbon-carbon bonds,
such as cyanides and carbonates.

 Inorganic compound
Therefore, to identify if the compound is
inorganic, you will just have to see if the
compound does not contain carbon, or if it
lacks carbon-carbon bonds then we can declare
that it is an inorganic compound.
