inorganic chemical
Inorganic chemicals are substances that do not contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds. Unlike organic compounds, which are primarily based on carbon, inorganic chemicals cover a wide range of elements and compounds that include metals, salts, minerals, and oxides.
🔬 What Are Inorganic Chemicals?
Inorganic chemicals include:
- Salts (e.g., NaCl – sodium chloride)
- Oxides (e.g., Fe₂O₃ – iron(III) oxide)
- Acids and bases (e.g., H₂SO₄ – sulfuric acid, NaOH – sodium hydroxide)
- Metals and alloys (e.g., iron, copper, brass)
- Non-metal compounds (e.g., ammonia, silicon dioxide)
