Usually solid, but using a vacuum chamber (to prevent oxidation) and intense light or electron beams it can become vapor. This is how vapor deposition of diamond, graphine, buckyballs or nanotubes can be done.

What is the oxidation state of carbon in carbon monoxide?

The oxidation state of carbon in carbon monoxide (CO) is +2. In CO, carbon is more electronegative than oxygen and pulls the shared electrons towards itself, giving it a formal oxidation state of +2.


What form is carbon in its most reduced state?

In its most reduced state, carbon is typically found as elemental carbon, which can exist in forms such as graphite or diamond. In these forms, carbon has the lowest oxidation state, with a formal oxidation state of 0. This means that it is not bonded to more electronegative elements, allowing it to maintain its reduced state.


What state symbol is carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide is not a state symbol. It is a chemical compound composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

What is the oxidation state of an individual carbon atom in rm CaCO 3?

The oxidation state of carbon in CaCO3 is +4. This is because the oxidation state of calcium (Ca) is +2 and the oxidation states of oxygen (O) are -2. Therefore, to balance the charges in the compound, the oxidation state of carbon must be +4.


What oxidation state of carbon in graphite?

The oxidation state of carbon in graphite is 0, as each carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms in a flat, hexagonal lattice structure. This results in a fully covalent bonding arrangement where carbon shares its valence electrons, meaning there is no formal transfer of electrons and therefore no oxidation state.
