All of the following are examples of allotropes of carbon EXCEPT Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or
answers the question. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question. diamond amorphous carbon quartz graphene all of the above
<em>The correct option would be </em><em>quartz.</em>
<u>Allotropy is a phenomenon that describes the natural existence of the same element in different forms with different physical characteristics. Allotropes are therefore different forms of the same element.</u>
Carbon as an element has several allotropes which include diamond, graphite, graphene, amorphous carbon, and fullerenes. Quartz is a crystalline solid that is composed of silicon dioxide and not carbon.
Hence, all the options are carbon allotropes except quartz.
