Essential Facts About Carbon: Nature, Uses, and Properties

Carbon, symbol C, is a non-metal and the sixth element on the periodic table, known since prehistoric times. It has a melting point of 3652°C and a boiling point of 4827°C. Carbon appears in various forms, including amorphous, diamond, and graphite, playing a vital role in life processes. It forms from natural substances and is crucial in both biological and industrial applications. However, certain carbon compounds can be harmful to living cells.

  1. Carbon By: Matthew – 7.4

  2. Some Helpful Information • Name: Carbon • Symbol : C • Number of Atomic: 6 • Melting point: 3652 °C - 3820 (K) • Boiling point: 4827 °C - 5100 (K) • Is it a metal?: No, it is not a metal.

  3. Discovery of Carbon Date of Discovery: Carbon is known from a Latin word “Carbo” which was discovered during the prehistoric time. Discoverer: There are no discoverer because Carbon are made from natural things.

  4. Descriptions of the Element • Carbon is made and found free in the nature • Carbon are forming with limited applications used • Thousands of Carbon are used in life processses • Carbon has three forms: - amorphous (lampblack), diamond and graphite -It produces a lot of things such as a diamond that can be sold with a high amount of money
