Does graphite form a tetrahedral network?
NO. Diamond does, graphite contains sheets of carbon atoms.
Are carbon and graphite same materialwhy?
Carbon fibers are made almost entirely of graphite. Carbon fiber composite, sometimes referred to as "carbon fiber", is made of carbon fibers and a matrix material, which is usually a plastic such as epoxy.
Why graphite is soft and greasy and good conductor of electricity?
Unlike most Giant Covalent Structures like diamond that form four covalent bonds, Graphite only forms 3, meaning it has a free electron meaning that graphite can conduct electricity.
Is graphene going to be put on the periodic table?
Yes Graphite is a MINERAL!!!!
Can carbon be scartched or dented?
It depends which allotrope (form of carbon you choose. Diamond, too hard, graphite a very soft material
Does graphite form a tetrahedral network?
NO. Diamond does, graphite contains sheets of carbon atoms.
Is graphite is purest form of carbon?
Graphite is indeed a pure form of carbon but it is just one form. Carbon exists as different allotropes like diamond and graphite.
What is an example of an inorganic form of carbon?
Diamond and graphite are both examples.
What element is a diamond and pencil lead made out of?
Carbon. Diamond is the crystalline form, while graphite (pencil "lead") is the powdered form.
What is a metal substance?
Carbon - non metallic solid in the form of graphite and diamond
What does the atomic structure of carbon form?
Carbon can form diamond, graphite, amorphous carbon, nanotubes, fullerenes, etc.
What makes diamonds and graphite two forms of the element carbon so different?
Well to be very upfront diamond is very heated and compressed carbon (coal graphite) while graphite is more "pure" carbon than diamonds
What is the crystal form of Graphite?
Graphite is in the hexagonal crystal system. Graphite is made up of thin layers of the element carbon and is one of the only two allotropes of the element. The other is diamond.
What is the most inert form of carbon?
Graphite is the most thermodynamically stable (more than diamond).
What elements have more than one form?
Carbon has three allotropes, diamond, graphite and buckminsterfullerene.
What can be made of graphite?
Graphite is pure carbon. A diamond is also pure carbon in a very specific crystal. Yet diamonds do not conduct electricity and graphite does. Graphite can form in plate like arrays of hexagonal crystals and in an amorphous, powdery form.
Are carbon and graphite same materialwhy?
Carbon fibers are made almost entirely of graphite. Carbon fiber composite, sometimes referred to as "carbon fiber", is made of carbon fibers and a matrix material, which is usually a plastic such as epoxy.
