Three forms or arrangements, in chemistry known as allotropes, of carbon are: diamond, graphite (pencil "lead"), and the fullerene or "bucky-ball," a soccer ball shaped arrangement of 60 carbon atoms.

The four pure forms of carbon are diamond, graphite, fullerene and nanotube.
P.S this guy dose have good answers

∙ 12y agoThe three forms of carbon are as follows:
1. Graphite, sheets of carbon formed by carbon molecules covalently bonded together. The sheets are attached together by intermolecular forces.
2.Diamond, a latce of carbon held together by covalent bonds.
3.Buckminster Fullerines, carbon taking the form of what resembles a miniature soccer ball.

Is a diamond pure carbon?
There are three forms of pure carbon: graphite, coal, and diamond. All three can be made perfectly pure, although coal is usually the least pure when found in nature. All have some impurities when found in nature however.
Living things are made up of very complicated molecules Why is carbon important for forming these complicated molecules?
It forms very strong bonds.
Which elements have different isotopes?
Many elements have different isotopes: 1) Carbon - Carbon 12, Carbon 14 2) Hydrogen - Protium, Deuterium, Tritium 3) Chlorine - Chlorine 35, Chlorine 37 etc
What are some nonliving and living things that contain carbon?
Limestone is composed of calcium carbonate, CaCO3 (the 3 is a sub-script) so it's a calcium atom, a carbon atom, and 3 oxygen atoms. There are some other minerals that contain carbon as well. Diamond, which is pure carbon, is an example.
Is carbon dioxide a particle?
A carbon atom is made up of six neutrons and six electrons.
What are the 3 pure forms of carbon?
The 3 pure forms of carbon are coal graphite and diamond
What element has 3 substances?
An element is a pure substance it can not be 3 different substances. However some elements can arrange themselves to look like completely different substances. These variations are called "Allotropes" of the element. The element Sulfur forms 30 solid allotropes, more than any other element. The next element to commonly form allotropes is the element Carbon, which forms - Soot (amorphous carbon), Graphite, Diamond, Buckminsterfullerene, Lonsdaleite, Graphine, and Carbon nanotubes.
Is a diamond pure carbon?
There are three forms of pure carbon: graphite, coal, and diamond. All three can be made perfectly pure, although coal is usually the least pure when found in nature. All have some impurities when found in nature however.
What are the 2 forms of carbon?
There are three forms of carbon: 1.Graphite 2.Diamond 3.Buckminster fullerine
What are 3 forms of carbon?
Graphite, diamonds, Lonsdaleite, C60 (Buckminsterfullerene), C540 Fullerene, C70 Fullerene, Amorphous carbon, and Single-walled carbon nanotube are all solid allotropes of carbon. Allotropes are different structural forms of the same element.
What are 3 examples of pure carbon?
Charcoal, Diamond, Graphite, Coke
Multiple covalent bonds may occur in atoms that containing carbon nitrogen or what other elements?
Carbon forms 4 bonds, nitrogen forms 3, oxygen forms two and hydrogen forms one.
How much carbon dioxide will be produced when one kilo of pure carbon burned?
C + O2 -------> CO2 12g of carbon produces 44g of carbon dioxide 1kg of carbon will produce 3-67kg of carbon dioxide
What material found in nature can turn to diamond?
That would be coal. --------------------------------- The correct answer is Carbon - Coal is also a form of carbon as is Graphite. There are 3 grades of Coal - Lignite, which is 55% Carbon - Bituminous, which is 75 to 90 percent Carbon and Anthracite,which is 90% Carbon and 10% impurites.(such as Sulfur) In summary- Diamond, Coal and Graphite are all Different forms of Carbon
What three factors enable carbon to have an enormous number of stable carbon compounds with very different properties?
1. Carbon forms unusually strong C-C single bonds, C=C double bonds, and carbon-carbon triple bonds. 2. The electronegativity of carbon (EN = 2.55) is too small to allow carbon to form C4- ions with most metals and too large for carbon to form C4+ ions when it reacts with nonmetals. Carbon therefore forms covalent bonds with many other elements. 3. Carbon forms strong double and triple bonds with a number of other nonmetals, including N, O, P, and S.
Marine organisms such as coral and shellfish have carbon in their bodies in what forms?
Calcium Carbonate <3
What type of Bond forms a fatty acid to a 3-carbon backbone?
ester linkages
