Scientists at the University of Oxford are researching the way that electricity flows in very small, molecular sized, components. In order to achieve this they are making use of graphene, an allotrope of carbon.
In this lesson students find out more about the allotropes and, in particular, the allotropes of carbon.
Learning outcomes:
- Students will recognize that the way that the atoms or molecules in a substance are organised can have an effect on the properties of the substance.
- Students will be able to describe the arrangement of the atoms in different allotropes of carbon (such as diamond and graphite).
