Answer is C Carbon filtering is commonly used for water purification and this is because the activated charcoal (carbon) has been treated with
oxygen to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. Both diamond and charcoal are made of carbon. However,
activated charcoal carbon filters are most effective at removing chlorine, sediment, taste and odor from water whereas diamond is
not. Why?
les )
A)
The carbon atoms in activated charcoal have a different attraction than the
carbon atoms in diamond. They are capable of attracting impurities that
diamond cannot
B)
The unusual formation of activated charcoal gives it the ability to capture
chemical through electrostatic attraction. The carbon atoms in diamond are
too far apart and will not trap other chemicals,
The huge surface area of activated charcoal gives it countless bonding
sites. When certain chemicals pass next to the carbon surface, they attach
to the surface and are trapped. The carbon atoms in diamond are not
