what is graphene?
a single layer of graphite
how thick is graphene?
one atom thick
name all 3 properties of graphene (similar to graphite)
- good conductor of electricity
- extremely strong
- high melting and boiling points
why is graphene a good conductor of electricity?
- graphene has delocalised electrons
- these delocalised electrons can move through the graphene, carrying electrical charge
how does graphene has a high melting and boiling point?
- graphene has a large number of strong covalent bonds, and these covalent bonds require a great deal of energy to break.
