    Q2.
    This question is about materials and their properties.

    (a) Figure 1 shows a carbon nanotube.

    Figure 1

    The structure and bonding in a carbon nanotube are similar to graphene.

    Carbon nanotubes are used in electronics because they conduct electricity.

    Explain why carbon nanotubes conduct electricity.
