To determine

To explain: The types of allotropes of Carbon and the reason that graphite electrically conductive but diamond is not.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
1. Is there a difference in packing (coordination number) between these two types (FCC and HCP) of structures?   2. Look at the two structures. A small difference in arrangement of atoms causes a dramatic difference in the properties of FCC ductile metals and HCP brittle metals. Can you see it? Try to draw the differences (You can draw the 3-layers separately):
What are the different polymorphs of zirconia?
Calculate the fraction of atom sites that are vacant for copper at its melting temperature of 1084degC. assume an energy vacancy formation of 0.90eVlatom. * 6.56 x 10^-5 O 0.9992 O 4.56 x 10^-4 O 2.19 X 10^-4
