Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

No, We can't use carbon to make the wires for household usage. 1) For the wires, we need a material which is a good conductor, so that it will have the proper flow of the current. 2) All the allotropes of carbon except Graphite is a bad conductor of electricity.

Answer 2

It cannot be used as a wire because it has no tensile strength worth crowing about. All metals beat carbon hands down for conducting electricity with Silver Gold and Copper being at the top. Carbon per-se is not a good conductor, it's ressistance increses with it's thickness.
