Question

Which of the following statement is correct?

  1. Each carbon is covalently bonded to other 3 carbon atoms.
  2. Each carbon is covalently bonded to other 4 carbon atoms.
  3. A giant lattice structure
  4. Hexagonal in shape

hintHint:

It is the structure of graphite. The dots represent one carbon atom.

The correct answer is: Each carbon is covalently bonded to other 3 carbon atoms.


    The correct option is a)Each carbon is covalently bonded to other 3 carbon atoms.
    In the above structure we see one carbon is attached to three other carbons. The structure shown is of graphite. Graphite is an allotrope of carbon and has layers stacked of graphene.
