2. (a) -10- | Rand § are two allotropes of carbon. R isa black opaque solid. which can be dest cd as Maky with a melting point of 3925 °C. S isa reflective, colourless solid with a melting point of 3823 °C. (i) Define the term “allotrope’ (mark) ii) Identify the names of R and S. Raw (@ marks) (ii) State whether R is an ionie, simple covalent or giant covalent structure.
