Question

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Which of the following are advantages of using carbon nanotubes?
1. Light weight
2. High tensile strength
3. Flexibility
4. High electrical conductivity

• A. 1 and 2 only
• B. 2 and 3 only
• C. 1, 3 and 4 only
• D. 1, 2, 3 and 4

Answer 1

The correct option is D 1, 2, 3 and 4

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical large molecules consisting of a hexagonal arrangement of hybridized carbon atoms, which is formed by rolling up a single or multiple sheet of graphene. They have many desirable properties of light weight, high tensile strength, flexibility and conductivity making them open to many applications.
