Which allotrope of carbon is considered a decent conductor of eletricity?

Graphite is considered a decent conductor of electricity among allotropes of carbon due to its unique structure that allows for the flow of electrons between the layers.


Which non metal is good conductor of electricity?

Carbon, when it is in the form of graphite.


Is carbon an insulator or a conductor?

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.


Does carbon have good conductivity?

yes because that is why batteries contain carbon


Is carbon conductor or insulator?

Carbon is a poor conductor of electricity. In its pure form, carbon is considered an insulator. However, carbon can be engineered to conduct electricity when it is in the form of graphite or graphene.


Does carbon conduct electricity?

No, carbon in its pure form is not a good conductor of electricity. However, certain forms of carbon like graphene and carbon nanotubes can conduct electricity due to their unique structure and properties.


IS CARBON A GOOD CONDUCTOR OF ELECTRICITY?

YES CARBON IS A GOOD CONDUCTOR OF ELECTRICITY


Are carbon and aluminium good conductors of heat?

Aluminium is a good conductor. Carbon, in the form (allotrope) of graphite is a good conductor but its other allotropes are not.


Is carbon a poor conductor of heat and electricity?

Carbon is a poor conductor of heat and electricity.


Is graphite a giant metallic?

Graphite is an allotrope of carbon and is semi metallic. It is a very good conductor of electricity and is also used for steel making, in batteries, brake lining and in pencils.


Is a carbon rod an insulator?

A carbon rod may be an insulator or a conductor. It depends on which allotrope of carbon we're talking about. Electricity can travel through a graphite (carbon) rod easily, but it cannot travel through a diamond rod. Both graphite and diamond are carbon, but the former is a conductor while the latter is an insulator.


Is carbon a electric conductor?

Yes, carbon is a very good conductor of electricity.
