Answer:

Graphite and Diamond are different because they have different structures. ... However each carbon atom in Diamond has 4 covalent bonds with other Carbons, making it extremely strong and hard. On the other hand, each carbon in graphite is bonded to three carbons, and therefore graphite is formed in layer

Also:

Each carbon atom in a diamond is linked to four other carbon atoms. Each carbon atom in graphite is linked to three other carbon atoms. Diamond is poor conductor of electricity due to the absence of free electrons. Graphite is good conductor of electricity due to the presence of free electrons in its structure.

a book with a mass of 1 kg is dropped from a height of 3 m. what is the potential energy of the book when it reaches the floor?

mafiozo [28]

Well, first of all, the formula for finding potential energy is;
PE=mgh
Where; m is the mass
g is the gravitational force or acceleration due to gravity
h is the height.
Anyway, according to the question, the mass is 1kg, the acceleration due to gravity has a constant value of 10ms² . And the height is 3m. Now you just have to use all these in the formula. So;
mgh= 1 x 10 x 3. That will be 30. And the unit of potential energy is Joule. So the answer is 30 joules. Hope i helped. Have a nice day.

What happens to a brick when it is heated

Kamila [148]

Explanation:

When a brick is heated to a temperature between 20°C and 150°C, it loses most of the water added to the clay during the preparation phase. ... When the temperature starts to rise over 600°C, chemical changes begin to occur in the clay which give the brick colour, hardness and durability.
