Can we use Carbon to make wires for household usage? Why or why not? Explain.Can we use Carbon to make wires for household usage? Why or why not? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

yes ,now we can use carbon for making household wires

Explanation:

Because carbon can also conducts electricity and it is now replaced the copper wires.

according to scientists:

" carbon nanotubes wire are one -tenth (1/10) of copper wires ,in weight,but they are stronger and much more flexible."

construction:

carbon nanotubes wire are extremely thin ,hollow cylinders,made up of carbon atoms.

• they are considered as one of the stiffest and strongest fibres.
• they are also corrosion resistance and carry high current than copper.

• But it us very difficult to controll these properties so their practical use is very less .but they are used too

Answer 2

No,we cannot use carbon to make wires for household usage.

Because,

• We use wires in our households to conduct electricity through the whole wiring system. So,we obviously need a good conductor of electricity to make the wires.

• Now,most of the allotropes of the carbon are poor conductors of electricity. (Exception : graphite.)

• Graphite form of carbon,can conduct electricity but it has less amount of physical strength than any other metal. That's why wires made out of graphite will be very fragile and it's not desirable at all.
