Examples of common everyday inorganic compounds are water, sodium chloride (salt), sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), calcium carbonate (dietary calcium source), and muriatic acid (industrial-grade hydrochloric acid). Inorganic compounds typically have high melting points and variable degrees of electrical conductivity.

The component elements of an inorganic solid bond together by means of ionic, covalent, or metallic bonds to form a solid structure. An ionic bond is one between electronically positive (alkali metals etc.) and negative elements (halogen etc.), and a covalent bond forms between elements with close electronegativities.

Some simple compounds that contain carbon are often considered inorganic. Examples include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbides, and the following salts of inorganic cations: carbonates, cyanides, cyanates, and thiocyanates.

Examples of Inorganic Compounds

• table salt or sodium chloride, NaCl.
• carbon dioxide, CO2
• diamond (pure carbon)
• silver.
• sulfur.

Inorganic compounds include compounds that are made up of two or more elements other than carbon, as well as certain carbon-containing compounds that lack carbon-carbon bonds, such as cyanides and carbonates. Inorganic compounds are most often classified in terms of the elements or groups of elements that they contain.

Chemical process can occur within living organisms or from nonliving sources. In the early 1700s, it was believed that chemical synthesis could occur only in living organisms and organic compounds were defined as coming from living organisms, whereas inorganic compounds come from nonliving sources.

The primary difference that lies between these organic compounds and inorganic compounds is that organic compounds always have a carbon atom while most of the inorganic compounds do not contain the carbon atom in them. Almost all the organic compounds contain the carbon-hydrogen or a simple C-H bond in them.

Organic compound, any of a large class of chemical compounds in which one or more atoms of carbon are covalently linked to atoms of other elements, most commonly hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen. The few carbon-containing compounds not classified as organic include carbides, carbonates, and cyanides.

Minerals are solid, crystalline, inorganic substances. Secondly, diamonds are allotropes. This means that diamonds are a form of carbon, and not an organic compound.

The chemical formula of baking soda is NaHCO3 ie sodium bicarbonate which is basically an inorganic compound. Thus baking soda is an inorganic compound.

there will be people who will say that human are mixture of organic and inorganic compounds. but if we see at the definition of organic compounds we see that human body is mostly composed of carbon with few bits of inorganic compounds and elements like Fe, Cu, Mg, Ca etc., so we can confidently say humans are organic.

Lemon juice contains high amounts of citric acid, which will protect cut fruit from oxidization. Additionally, the pungent flavor of lemon juice can enhance and amplify the taste of fruit.
