What did Yoda say when we went to the Bakery?

Dough or Donut there is no pie.

I feel like you might like the book Doomed based on your username. Lol

Im finding that people have strong opinion on what qualifies as organic. Haha.

I think it’s cool I can talk to people about chemistry outside of work tho. None of my friends understand anything about what I do for a living.

You’re right- primarily because science changes as new things are discovered and therefore the definition changes.

I still think the definition I learned with C-H covalent bonds indicating organic has fewer exceptions than other definitions.

Charcoal and activated charcoal are not amorphous carbon compounds because their structures contain other elements than just carbon.

None of those compounds would be stable. Theoretically you’re making a good point for an exception to C-H bonds defining organic chemistry but I bet all of your fully halogenated compounds would degrade and break apart until some number of hygrogens replace the halogens to make it stable.

Point taken tho.

According to Wikipedia it is- but I agree after looking at its structure that it is not.

There are no carbon-hydrogen covalent bonds in the structure.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonic_acid#:~:text=In chemistry%2C carbonic acid is,quite stable at room temperature.

Your link claims any compound with carbon is organic (there are exceptions listed) which really doesn’t fit either since there so many exceptions.

I was glib with my organic chemistry because it’s not just hydrogen atoms specifically but more the covalent bond between carbon and hydrogen that makes it organic so they have to be bonded covalently to be considered organic.

There’s still exceptions to this definition but they’re far fewer and usually only found in extremely unstable compounds like the fully halogenated fringe cases you mentioned in another comment.

Not really completely false just missing a piece of information- ie I should have mentioned they be bonded but carbonic acid and ketones are both organic compounds so I’m not sure what you’re trying to say there.

Edit: carbonic Acid is not because there are no C-H bonds.

Just adding something to water doesn’t make it a compound. Adding something to water makes it a solution.

Modern definition of Organic as it pertains to chemistry is any compound that contains BOTH hydrogen AND carbon.

Edit: Vitamins in general including absorbed acid are organic compounds because they contain both carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Edit2- I left out a key piece of information. The carbon and hydrogen need to be covalently bonded as well not just part of the compound.

Calcium carbonate is inorganic because it doesn’t contain hydrogen. Organic compound must have both carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Edit- more specifically the hydrogen and carbon should be covalently bonded and there are still a few exceptions as noted by other comments below.

No. Appraisals and tax assessments have a land value and a “structural improvement” values. Both of these are added together for the purchase price.

If there’s a building on the land that’s not derelict and has utilities- it’s almost always going to be worth more than the land value by itself.

There are def certain zip codes and/or a very large plot of land with a single house on it where the inverse is the case (land being worth more than improvement) but that is not the norm.

That’s why I specifically mentioned it. :)

The suggested use for anyone not bothering to look this up is to deodorize gas and stool but it’s suggested use is for people with colostomy or exposed stomas where smelly gas and stool is a constantly expelled or people with chronic gas and liquid stool.

I wouldn’t want to stick any drug in my body just to stop farting in social situations. Every drug has or could have side effects even Tylenol or aspirin.

The trick is finding jobs that synergize to an broader overall industry. If you’re moving every 3yrs or so that’s plenty of time to learn many of the specifics of the job and markets you’re in. You treat each job as a training assignment for becoming an expert in the field.

For example

If you start out marketing for a pharmeceutical company You’re next move could be marketing for a bio-pharma company After that you move to marketing for phjarmaceutical ingredients After that you move to marketing for a drug delivery devices Then you can go to medical devices materials

NOW YOU ARE A MARKETING EXPERT IN HEALTHCARE

I don’t want to upvote this. :(

I agree especially with concentrates or “juice drinks” that have less than 10% juice. All of those things are just sugar drinks.

Soda specifically - is something we should be looking closer at in relation to sugar abuse. The number of kids and young adults I see quaffing giant plastic cups of fountain drinks is alarming.

Even worse when they use it to replace water.

If they aren’t going to pay mods who are they planning to pay to make sure bots aren’t gaming the system? This is going to fail hard and we’ll see another influx of disgruntled migrants when they take it away.
