Pure carbon is encountered in eleven different forms or allotropes. All forms of carbon are solid at room temperature, are relatively resistant to chemical corrosion and they all burn to form CO and CO2 when heated to high temperatures in the presence of oxygen.
The difference between these forms can be subtle and in our everyday experience we encounter them mainly in one of three important forms:
- graphite
- diamond
- lamp black
