Organic Vs. Inorganic

First of all, I would like to start by finding the absolute basic definitions of organic and inorganic chemistry. This website offers a glossary of chemistry terms.

Organic chemistry - the chemistry discipline that is concerned with the study of compounds containing carbon that is chemically bonded to hydrogen. Organic chemistry encompasses the synthesis, identification, modeling, and chemical reactions of such compounds.

Inorganic chemistry - the study of the chemistry of materials from non-biological origins. Typically, this refers to materials not containing carbon-hydrogen bonds.

 

This, as expected, gives me a basic definition of each. One thing I do remember from high school chemistry was my teacher asking us which has more content:  Organic or inorganic chemistry, after telling us that organic has carbon bonds while inorganic contains everything else. It was such a surprise to find out organic was much larger in size.
