Sodiumcorbonate is inorganic salt , why it is not organic substance even it contains carbon?

Answer:

Na2CO3 is joined by ionic bond not covalent C-C bond in organic molecules. @the other answerer: LOL! maybe i should expect a TD, too. Another problem with this section is students know how to ask but never know how to say thank you. Rarely do i see an asker selecting a BA. If i see one who does, whether i get the BA or not, i will definitely answer another question from that person.
Organic molecules have carbon to carbon bonds. EDIT: I wonder why I got a thumb down for stating the definition of an organic molecule? Yahoo answers is a weird place. If there's only one carbon atom in a molecule its not an organic molecule, because there can be no C-C bonds...
