Inorganic Compounds Examples. An inorganic compound is any compound that lacks a carbon atom, for lack of a more in-depth definition. Those compounds with a carbon atom are called organic compounds, due to their root base in an atom that is vital for life. There are a small number of inorganic compounds that actually do contain carbon, given its propensity for forming molecular bonds; these include carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, to name a few.
