Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Graphene is made of ____ atoms.
A
Neon
B
Carbon
C
Silicon
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Graphene is a single layer (monolayer) of carbon atoms, tightly bound in a hexagonal honeycomb lattice. It is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a plane of sp2-bonded atoms with a molecular bond length of 0.142 nanometres.

Detailed explanation-2: -graphene, a two-dimensional form of crystalline carbon, either a single layer of carbon atoms forming a honeycomb (hexagonal) lattice or several coupled layers of this honeycomb structure.

Detailed explanation-3: -Graphene is a single carbon atom thick forming a two-dimensional sheet. Graphene is very strong and has a low density. Graphene is extremely strong due to the many, strong covalent bonds between the carbon atoms. These covalent bonds are difficult to overcome and require a lot of energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Graphene is a single-atom thick layer of graphite with strong covalent bonds between each carbon atom. The atoms are arranged in hexagons. Its properties include: high melting and boiling points.

Detailed explanation-5: -Graphene is most simply defined as a single layer of carbon atoms bonded together in a hexagonal, sheetlike structure. You can think of pure graphene as a one-layer-thick sheet of carbon tissue paper that happens to be the strongest material on Earth.
