Diamond has a giant molecular structure. Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms. A lot of energy is needed to separate the atoms in diamond. This is because covalent bonds are strong, and diamond contains very many covalent bonds.
Graphite on the other hand has flat layers of carbon atoms held by weak van der Waal's forces which makes Graphite a weak object and easily breakable.
As graphite contains layers of carbon atoms. The layers slide over each other easily because there are only weak forces between them, making graphite slippery. These electrons can move through the graphite, carrying charge from place to place and allowing graphite to conduct electricity.
this is answer....i think it helps u.....
if help you....mark me brainlist
