The understandable notes- Carbon and its compounds, Class 10, Part-2
ALLOTROPES OF CARBON Allotropes are different structural arrangement of same element. Since allotropes consist of same atom their chemical properties remains same but the difference lies in their physical properties. Allotropes have different arrangements of atom inside them. Carbon also possess the property of forming allotropes. ( Allotropes kisi bhi element ke judwa bhai behan hote hai. Allotropes ke andar atom alag alag tarah se arranged hote hai. Yani ki same element ke atoms different tarah se ek dusre se bond banate hai. Ab is se chemical properties pr to koi asar nhi padta lekin physical properties kafi change ho jati hai. Aur carbon kai bhi kai allotropes exist krte hai jinhe hum abhi padhenge. Aur inhe dhyan se padh lena kyonki inse kai question tarah ke questions bante hai.) DIAMOND Diamond is an allotrope of carbon in which one atom is bonded to four other atoms forming a rigid three dimensional structure. Diamond is used as jewellery and is the hardest natural o...
