Chapter 13, Problem 16E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Carbon shows unique properties it form very large no. of molecule. Catenation is the linkage of atoms of the same element into long chain this property dominate in carbon atom due to which carbon forms very larger no. of compounds. Carbon is capable of forming many allotropes due to its unique property.

Carbon has several allotropes

(a) Diamond (b) graphite (c) fullerenes (C60,C540,C70)(d) Nanotubes (e) Nanoribbons.

Concept introduction:

Fullerenes nanotubes and Nano ribbons are allotropes of carbon. Their basic structures are different.

To determine: the structure of fullerene, Nano tubes and Nano ribbons.
