Found in these forms charcoal graphite diamond?
If YOU write in this area, your question goes to the "already answered" bucket- Besides its use as jewelry, Diamond is used where anything incredibly hard is needed. Diamond (dust) is used to make saw blades and drill bits that can cut through just about anything. Graphite, while also composed of carbon, has an entirely different crystal structure, and different uses. Graphite is used as an electrical contactor (a brush) in electrical motors. It makes a great dry lubricant for things like locks, and when mixed with clay, forms the "lead" for ordinary pencils.
How many orbitals can be found in a 3p sublevel?
9
How many orbitals are found in the f sublevel?
there are 7 orbitals in the f sublevel.
What type of bonding pattern is found in carbon?
Almost all of the compounds of carbon are formed by covalent bonding. Compounds such as diamond and graphite show strict covalent character in bonding.
How many orbitals are found in sub-level d?
There are 5 d orbitals in a given sublevel.
Which element is found in the pure state in graphite and diamond?
Carbon.
What 2 forms of carbon are found in nature?
Diamond and Graphite are the two pure forms of carbon
What does a diamond and lead have in common?
If you are referrring to lead as the thing that is found in pencils, then the lead is actually graphite, and graphite and Diamond are both pure carbon, just arranged differently chemical composition.
What are two continuous lattices that forms?
the two continuous lattices that carbon can form are found in diamond and graphite
What is found in diamond and graphite?
Carbon. (C)Carbon is present in both diamond and graphite, both contain carbon atoms but they have different structure means carbon atoms are attach with each other in different manner in both diamond n graphite, in graphite three out of four electrons of outer most shell r attached with other electrons of other carbon atoms and one electron is fee that's why graphite is a good conductor of electricity .
Element that exists as two forms such as diamond or grapite and is found in the human body?
Carbon, it is found in every human cell and as diamonds and graphite
What element can be found as colourless or grey or black?
Diamond, graphite, and carbon black respectively - in other words, carbon.
Are the atoms in the diamond stronger then the one in a graphite?
The carbon atoms that make up diamond are (within certain parameters) no different than the atoms found within the graphite. The strength between the two minerals comes from the structure/organization of the carbon, not the "strength" of atoms.
How hard is carbon?
That would completely depend upon the form of Carbon. Carbon can be found as coal, graphite, or diamond to name a few.
What are a diamond's properties?
Diamond is the hardest, strongest and the most abrasive resistant thing found on the earth . it is used in jewelry and also cutting hard objects especially carbides and also the graphite is the smoothest substance found on earth.
What is known as black diamond?
Carbonado, commonly known as the "Black Diamond", is the toughest form of natural diamond. It is an impure form of polycrystalline diamond consisting of diamond, graphite, and amorphous carbon. It is found in alluvial deposits in the Central African Republic and mainly in Brazil.
How is carbon found in nature?
it is found in my car exhaust fumes and under rocks Edit: Carbon can be found in many typical things including: Car exhaust, ashes, diamonds*, etc. *diamonds are a form of carbon itself.
