All organic compounds contains carbon. Letter B cannot be true. Methylamine (CH3NH2) contains nitrogen and is organic so as methane (CH4). Phenol may be hydrophobic but isopropyl alcohol is hydrophilic. Hence, the answer is A since all of the organic compounds, with or withour nitrogen, hyrdophobic or hydrophilic, they all contain carbon.
