Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The given molecular formula that represent organic or inorganic compound.
Introduction:
Molecular formula is the shortest way of representing the number of atoms present in each element in the molecule of a compound. Organic compounds are the compounds that compulsory contain carbon and hydrogen but sometimes it may contain oxygen, nitrogen and other elements in their structure. Inorganic compounds are the compounds that does not contain carbon in their structure.
b.
