Answer:
each of two or more different physical forms in which an element can exist. Graphite, charcoal, and diamond are all allotropes of carbon
In materials science, polymorphism is the ability of a solid material to exist in more than one form or crystal structure. Polymorphism can potentially be found in any crystalline material including polymers, minerals, and metals, and is related to allotropy, which refers to chemical elements.
