C6H12O6, or sugar, is organic. It is created out of one glucose unit and one fructose unit. It is a carbohydrate, which includes starch, sugar, glucose, and fructose, which means it is a natural product. Last but not least, since it contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, it is organic.
Synthetic organic pigments are derived from coal tars and other petrochemicals. Inorganic pigments are made by relatively simple chemical reactions—notably oxidation—or are found naturally as earths. Inorganic pigments include white opaque pigments used to provide opacity and to lighten other colours.
