Chemistry:Lists of molecules

Short description: List of molecules from carbon numbers, gases, and ect

This is an index of lists of molecules (i.e. by year, number of atoms, etc.). Millions of molecules have existed in the universe since before the formation of Earth. Three of them, carbon dioxide, water and oxygen were necessary for the growth of life. Although humanity had always been surrounded by these substances, it has not always known what they were composed of.

By century

The following is an index of list of molecules organized by time of discovery of their molecular formula or their specific molecule in case of isomers:
