Not used today but possible in the future:
- carbon nanotubes
- doped carbon as CaC6
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
It depends on the type, or allotrope, of carbon you're talking about. For a material to conduct electricity, it should have free electrons to carry the electrical current. In diamond, an allotrope of carbon, there are no such free electrons. This means that diamond does not conduct electricity. However, graphite, another allotrope of carbon, conducts electricity very well because it has an entire "sea" of free electrons.
Diamond is an allotrope (arrangement) of carbon.
NO!!! Diamonds are an allotrope of carbon. Each carbon atom forms four covalent bonds with four adjacent carbon atoms. The result is the ADAMANTINE structure ( Very similar to a pyramid).
Graphite (an allotrope of carbon) and graphene does conduct electricity whilst other allotropes of carbon such as diamond do not.
graphite is the lowest energy of carbon allotrope
Diamond is the allotrope -- of carbon.
Diamond is an allotrope of carbon.
The tools used for cutting and drilling applications are tipped with diamond, the hardest substance on earth, which is an allotrope of Carbon.
The carbon nanofoam is the 5th allotrope of carbon which is found in 1997.but it was confirmed in 2010.
A diamond.
Diamond is the hardest mineral currently known and is an allotrope of carbon.
yes ,it is an allotrope of carbon.
A diamond is an allotrope of carbon
Because it is an allotrope of carbon. Carbon is an element , and appears in the periodic table. Othe allotropes of carbon are graphite and buckminster fullerene(footballene). An allotrope of an element is that element appearing in differenc physical characteristics.
It is one of forms of carbon
Because it is an allotrope of carbon. It is a different structural form of the element carbon having a rather flat lattice structure that tends to be in sheets.
