Biology

Allotropes of carbon includes substances such as graphite, diamond or buckminsterfullerene.



They’re all similar in the thing that they’re all made out of carbon only.


However, their structure is different, such as graphite has a layer structure, diamond has a tetrahedral structure, and buckminsterfullerene has a spherical structure.  



Since they have different structures, they have different physical properties too. For example, diamond is hard because all the carbon atoms in the structure is held together by strong covalent bonds, while graphite are graphene layers that are held by weak intermolecular forces which makes the layers slide over each other easily thus making graphite soft.

1.how is the sound of thunder created?
Naddik [55]
1. Thunder is caused by the rapid expansion of the air surrounding the path of a lightning bolt. ... From the clouds to a nearby tree or roof, a lightning bolt takes only a few thousandths of a second to split through the air. The loud thunder that follows the lightning bolt is commonly said to come from the bolt itself.
2. thunderstorms mostly occur in rainforests. Some of the most powerful thunderstorms happen in the United States of America.

3. Cumulonimbus is a dense, towering vertical cloud, forming from water vapor carried by powerful upward air currents. If observed during a storm, these clouds may be referred to as thunderheads. Cumulonimbus can form alone, in clusters, or along cold front squall lines.

4. The air cools as it rises. Water vapor condenses and forms cumulus clouds. When condensation occurs, heat (latent heat/energy ) is released and helps the thunderstorm grow. At some point, condensation high in the cloud (now in the form of water droplets and ice) falls to the ground as rain.
