diamonds and graphite are both made of carbon but they show different physical properties

they are isotopes

isotopes are those of the same element  with the same proton number but different neutron number

diamonds are macromolecules meaning they are held by stong covalent bonds

✌️✌️ hey mate,

❄️The physical properties of graphite

➡️has a high melting point, similar to that of diamond.

➡️has a soft, slippery feel, and is used in pencils and as a dry lubricant for things like locks.

➡️has a lower density than diamond.

➡️is insoluble in water and organic solvents - for the same reason that diamond is insoluble.

❄️ physical properties of Diamond

➡️Diamond is the allotrope of carbon in which the carbon atoms are arranged in the specific type of cubic lattice called diamond cubic.

➡️Diamond is an optically isotropic crystal that is transparent to opaque.

➡️Diamond is the hardest naturally occurring material known.

thanks
nice to help you ✌️✌️
