Answers
The allotropes of carbon are
Graphite
Used as lead for pencils
It's a good conductor
Diamond
A lustrous material used in jwelleries
Used for cutting diamonds
Full information:
Diamond is a well-known allotrope of carbon that exhibits hardness and high dispersion of light. It is the hardest known natural mineral and finds applications in cutting, drilling, and jewelry, and as a potential semiconductor material.
Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in one plane; layers of graphene make up graphite. Graphene is a material of interest due to its high electron mobility and its possible applications in electronics.
Fullerenes are a class of carbon allotropes in which carbon takes the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube. This class of materials includes carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and the newly discovered nanobuds.
Here is your answer
Carbon :-it is a non-metal.it (atomic number - 6) (valency-4)
The three allotropes of Carbon are:-
1.Diamond
2.Grephite
3.buckministerfullerene
Some point on allotropes of carbon
Diamond:-it is purest crystalline allotropes of Carbon it's general formula cn.where n is no of carbon atom.
Grephite:-it is a greyish-black opaque substance. it is non-metal but it conduct electricity
Buckministerfullerene :- it is a polyhedral carbon structure composed of around 60-80 carbon atoms in pentagon
it is a hexagon configuration.
it's formula is c60
Hope it helps you
