Organic molecules

Organic molecules are molecules that are usually formed from carbon atoms in a long chain or a ring. Other molecules such as hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen may also be present. More specifically, a long chain of hydrogen and mostly carbon atoms is called a hydrocarbon, which is a type of organic molecule.
