Product Code : SCL-MTP-12480
The Graphite Crystal Model is a three-layer educational molecular structure model containing 94 carbon atoms, used for teaching the layered arrangement of carbon in graphite and its relationship to physical properties. Designed for advanced-level education and class use, it provides chemistry teachers and students with a clear three-dimensional representation of graphite structure.
Product Description
The Graphite Crystal Model represents graphite as a layered carbon structure and helps students visualise an arrangement that can be difficult to understand from two-dimensional diagrams alone. The model has three layers, contains 94 carbon atoms, measures 16 cm high and 22 cm wide, and is intended for advanced-level classroom education.
Graphite consists of layers of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms. This three-dimensional teaching model allows students to observe the layered geometry and use it as a visual reference when discussing bonding, crystal structure, carbon allotropes and the relationship between atomic arrangement and material properties.
Key Features
- Three-layer graphite representation: Clearly displays the layered structural arrangement associated with graphite.
- Contains 94 carbon atoms: Provides sufficient structural detail for class demonstrations and advanced chemistry study.
- Classroom-friendly dimensions: The constructed model measures 16 cm in height and 22 cm in width.
- Supports structure-property learning: Helps students examine how atomic arrangement relates to the characteristics of graphite.
- Suitable for advanced education: Designed for advanced-level chemistry teaching and class use.
- Three-dimensional visualisation: Makes the layered carbon lattice easier to understand than a flat textbook diagram alone.
- Useful for comparative teaching: Can be compared with diamond and other carbon structure models to examine differences between carbon allotropes.
