allotropes of carbon - Diamond has a giant covalent Structure, made up Of carbon atoms that each form four covalent bands. Really hard. Strong covalent bonds take alot Of energy to break, so a very high Melting point, doesn't conduct electricity, as no free electrons. for ions. forms three -In graphite, each carbon atom only Covalent bonds, creating sheets of carbon atoms arranged in nexagons, no covalent bonds between layers, so free to Move over each other, soft and Slippery, ideal as a lubricating Material. High Melting paint, need loads of energy to break, each carbon atom has one election thats delocalised (Move), Conducts electricity and thermal energy- Graphene is one layer of graphite, Sheet of carbon atoms joined together in hexagons. One atom thick. Two dimenstional substance. Strong, incredibly light. Can be added to composite Materials, contains delocalised electrons, conduct electricity, has the potential to be used in electronics. in the →Fullerenes are molecules of carbon shaped like closed tubes or hollow balls, arranged in hexagons, also contain pentagons or heptagons. Used to 'cage! Other Molecules. Used to deliver a drug body. Have a huge surface area, help Make great industrial catalysts. ALSO Make great lubricants. Can Form nanotubes - tiny Carbon cylinders. Can Conduct both electricity and thermal energy.
