fats, protein, DNA, glucose are organic molecules.
carbon dioxide is the inorganic form of carbon.
H2O, KCl, Oxygen are also inorganic compounds.
Fats contain C,H, O,sometimes N and P.
Proteins are made up of C, H, O, N and sulphur and iodine.
DNA is the nucleic acid.

Organic compounds are compounds that MINIMALLY contain Carbon AND Hyrdogen. So, since simple combounds such as Water, and Oxygen do not contain Carbon then they are off the list. Also, Carbon Dioxide does not contain H (Hyrdogen) so therefor it is also NOT an organic compound.
I'm not sure what you mean by KC1?? If that is supposed to be KCl (or potassium chloride) then that is NOT an organic compound either.
EVERYTHING involved within a living being would be "organic" so therefor fats, proteins, glucose, and DNA ARE organic.

Carbon based compounds containing hydrogen are organic.
So, fats, proteins, DNA, Glucose are organic.
Carbon dioxide, H2O (water), Oxygen and KCl are not organic. Oxygen is an element. Others are inorganic compounds.

fats,proteins ,DNA,glucose are organic since they contain C and H bonds......but the others donot have these bonds making them inorganic. thats the simplest way to explain
