Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.56SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The hybridization of carbon in carbon nanotubes and the reason for their good electrical conductivity should be stated.
Concept introduction:
Solids are of two types: amorphous and crystalline solids.
Crystalline solids are those in which the particles that constitute the solid are sequenced in a periodic manner for a long range. Amorphous solids are those in which the particles that constitute the solid are sequenced in random manner for a long range.
Crystalline solids are of 4 types: ionic, molecular, covalent network and metallic.
