New cards

what is graphene?

a single layer of graphite

2
New cards

how thick is graphene?

one atom thick

3
New cards

name all 3 properties of graphene (similar to graphite)

- good conductor of electricity

- extremely strong

- high melting and boiling points

4
New cards

why is graphene a good conductor of electricity?

- graphene has delocalised electrons

- these delocalised electrons can move through the graphene, carrying electrical charge

5
New cards

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.
