 Carbon is important for all the known living systems, and life could not exist without it. Carbon is available in the form of hydrocarbons other than food and wood such as fossil fuel, methane gas, and crude oil. Carbon fibres have multiple uses since they are strong, yet lightweight, durable material. These fibres are used in making tennis rackets, fishing rods, even aeroplane, and rockets. The industrial diamonds are used for drilling and cutting rocks

It makes up for 18% of the human body. Sugar, glucose, proteins etc are all made of it. The food we eat contains an important source of energy which we call carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are nothing but elements of carbon itself.

Carbon in its diamond form is used in jewellery. But diamonds are also used for industrial purposes. It is the hardest substance known to man and so has many uses in manufacturing processes.

Amorphous carbon is used to make inks and paints. It is also used in batteries.

Graphite is used as the lead in your pencils. It is also used in the production of steel.

One of the most important uses is carbon dating. We can actually use carbon to measure the age of things. Scientists use a rare form of carbon called Carbon-14 to measure the age of fossils, bones etc. The release of this carbon-14 is recorded to estimate the life of the said organic substance. This is how scientists find the age and period of dinosaur bones and fossils!

Activated charcoal was once considered the universal antidote:

The ‘activation’ process strips the charcoal of previously absorbed molecules and frees up bonding sites again. This process also reduces the size of the pores in the charcoal and makes more holes in each molecule, therefore, increasing its overall surface area. Activated carbon is useful for extracting the direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) such as dabigatran, apixaban, rivaroxaban and edoxaban from blood plasma samples.

It has a variety of proposed benefits, ranging from lowering cholesterol to whitening teeth .

Common Uses:

Used as a decorative tool in jewelry items.

Fossil fuels like methane gas, crude oil, petrol, diesel, etc. contain high percentages of carbon. Even the cooking gas that we use is a hydrocarbon.

Carbon is used as a base for the ink that is used in inkjet printers.

It is used in the rims of automobiles as a black fume pigment.

Plastics are carbon polymers.

Vegetable carbon or activated carbon, is sometimes used as a bleaching agent, or a gas absorbent. It is widely used in filtration systems.

Carbon (in the form of carbon dioxide), is also used in fizzy drinks, fire extinguishers, and also as dry ice when it is in a solid state.

Daily use materials like perfumes, shoe polish, and carbon paper make use of carbon.

In metallurgy, carbon monoxide is used as a reduction agent in order to derive other elements and compounds.

Carbon in the form of 'Freon', is used in cooling devices and systems.

Many metal cutters, and heat-resistant tools and devices are also manufact
