Elemetal carbon appears in many structural forms or allotropes. Three of these forms are crystalline - diamond, graphite and the recently discovered fullerene (bucky ball) - while more than 40 others including coke and carbon black are amorphous. Now there seems to be a fourth crystalline allotrope of carbon, reported in 1995 by Rich and Lagow at the University of Texas
Newly discovered allotrope of carbon has the form

A

Polyene

B

fullerene

C

bucky ball

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Elemetal carbon appears in many structural forms or allotropes. Three of these forms are crystalline - diamond, graphite and the recently discovered fullerene (bucky ball) - while more than 40 others including coke and carbon black are amorphous. Now there seems to be a fourth crystalline allotrope of carbon, reported in 1995 by Rich and Lagow at the University of Texas Structures of different allotropes of carbon have been compared. Which represents incorrect comparison ?

Carbon has large number of allotropes of which crystalline forms are diamond, graphite and fullerenes. Amorphous forms are coal, coke wood charcoal animal charcoal, lamp black, gas carbon, petroleum coke, sugar charcoal (Atomic radius of C = 0.77A^(@) ) The inter layer distance in graphite is

Carbon has large number of allotropes of which crystalline forms are diamond, graphite and fullerenes. Amorphous forms are coal, coke wood charcoal animal charcoal, lamp black, gas carbon, petroleum coke, sugar charcoal (Atomic radius of C = 0.77A^(@) ) In graphite which have several fused hexagonal ring of benzene the hybridization state of each carbon atom and the bond order of each carbon-carbon bond are respectively

Carbon shows allotropy. The various allotropic forms of carbon can be broadly classified into 2 classes a) Crystalline form b) Amphorous form Diamond and Graphite are the 2 crystalline forms of carbon. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged tetrahedrally while in graphite, the carbon atoms are arranged inregular hexagons in flat parallel layers In (CO_(3)^(2-)) , carbon atoms shows

In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged tetrahedrally while in graphite, the carbon atoms are arranged inregular hexagons in flat parallel layers When diamond is heated at 1800 to 2000^(@)C in valency. It is converted into

Identify the correct statement from the following I) Graphite is used as dry lubricant, as it posses slippary nature II) Diamond is thermodynamically more stable than graphite III) Carbon black, coke, charcoal are impure forms of graphite or fullerenes IV) Diamond is measured in carats and one carat is 200 gm.
