@ JEEVA
The main difference is in the presence of a carbon atom; organic compounds will contain a carbon atom (and often a hydrogen atom, to form hydrocarbons), while almost all inorganic compounds do not contain either of those two atoms. While most inorganic compoundsdo not contain carbon, there are a few that do.
so, by that the compound that contains carbon in its elemental form , u can say thats organic compound , and which doesnot thats inorganic one . 
the amount of carbon doesnot matter here .
