Question

Explain the difference between.
* Diamond and Graphite​

Answer 1

Answer:

Diamond: each carbon atom bonds to 4 other carbon atoms, WHILST, Graphite: each carbon atom bonds to 3 other carbon atoms. Thus, diamond bears more of a tetrahedral structure, whereas graphite takes the form of layers. Hence, graphite is a weak conductor of electricity.
