Uses

0 Carbon is unique among the elements in its ability to form strongly bonded chains, sealed off by hydrogen atoms.

0 Carbon combines with some metals to make carbides such as tungsten carbide. Tungsten carbide is very, very hard and durable. This makes it desirable as tips for cutting tools such as drill bits.

0 Carbon is also used in charcoal, which is a source of fuel for a barbeque or a certain type of cooking.
