Does anyone know the resistivity of pure carbon??I’m doing a coursework n am stuck ..please help…loadsa lovin,G
Resistivity is a measure of a material's ability to resist the flow of electric current. It is the inverse of electrical conductivity and is typically measured in ohm-meters (Ω⋅m).
Determining the resistivity of pure carbon can provide valuable information about its electrical properties and potential applications in electronics and other industries.
The resistivity of pure carbon can be measured by applying a known voltage across a sample of the material and measuring the resulting current. The resistivity can then be calculated using Ohm's law (R = V/I).
The resistivity of pure carbon can be affected by factors such as temperature, impurities, and the structure of the material. High temperatures can increase resistivity, while impurities and defects can decrease it.
There are no standard values for the resistivity of pure carbon, as it can vary depending on the specific type and form of carbon being measured. However, the resistivity of graphite, a common form of pure carbon, is typically around 10-5 Ω⋅m.
