➡️Diamond

Each carbon atom in a diamond is covalently bonded to four other carbons in a three-dimensional array. A diamond is essentially one giant molecule.

➡️Graphite

In graphite, the carbon atoms are joined in sheets of linked hexagons that look like chicken wire. Each sheet is essentially a single molecule.

Within a sheet, each carbon atom forms strong covalent bonds to three other carbon atoms. The stacked sheets are held together only by weak intramolecular forces.

➡️Buckminsterfullerene

Buckminsterfullerene consists of a single sheet of carbon atoms wrapped into a sphere. Each carbon atom is bonded to three other atoms. Sixty carbon atoms form the shape of a ball with a carbon atom at each corner of 20 hexagons and 12 pentagons.

Many other balls of carbon are known, including C₇₀, C₇₆, C₈₄ and C₅₄₀. They contain various numbers of pentagons and hexagons and are known collectively as "buckyballs" or "fullerenes".
