Hello dear,
● Uses of carbon allotropes -
- Coal is used as main source of energy in villages.
- Diamond is used in making jewellery, glass cutting, etc.
- Graphite is used in lead pencils, cell electrodes, etc.
- Graphene has several nanomaterial applications in electronics, electro-catalysis, diagnostics, etc.
◆ Extra information -
# Allotropes -
- A phenomenon in which an element exists in different modification in same physical state is called allotropy.
- Atomic bonds differ in various allotropes.
# Following elements are well known for allotrope formation-
- Carbon (diamond & graphite)
- Sulphur (alpha & beta-sulphur)
- Phosphorus (yellow and red phosphorus)
Hope this helped you. Keep asking..
