GraphiteGraphite
• Structure: Giant covalent structure
• Consists of flat layers of carbon atoms
• In each layer, each carbon atom joined to three other carbon atoms by strong covalent bonds.
• Layers of carbon atoms are held by weak van der Waals’ forces.
• No covalent bonds between the layers.

GraphiteGraphitePhysical Properties Rationales
Very high melting/boiling point
Soft and slippery
Conducts electricity
18
A lot of energy is required to break the strong covalent bonds between the carbon atoms within each layer.Layers of carbon atoms can slide over each other due to the weak van der Waals’ forces between the layers.
Each carbon atom contributes one outer shell electron which is not used to form covalent bonds. These electrons can move along the layers to conduct electricity.

Uses Rationales
Dry lubricant
Pencil lead
Inert electrodes for electrolysis

It is slippery and does not decompose at high temperatures.
It is soft as the carbon layers can flake off easily.
It is a good conductor of electricity and is fairly unreactive.
