\huge\bf\mathfrak{Diamond:}

➖has a very high melting point (almost 4000°C). Very strong carbon-carbon covalent bonds have to be broken throughout the structure before melting occurs.

➖is very hard. it needs to break very strong covalent bonds operating in 3-dimensions.

➖doesn't conduct electricity. All the electrons are held tightly between the atoms, and aren't free to move.

➖is insoluble in water and organic solvents.

\huge\bf\mathfrak{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

➖conducts electricity

Heyaa...<b>

Properties of Graphite:-

➡️It is unique in that it has properties of both a metal and a non-metal.

➡️It is flexible but not elastic, has a high thermal and electrical conductivity, and is highly refractory and chemically inert.
➡️Graphite has a low adsorption of X-rays and neutrons making it a particularly useful material in nuclear applications.

Properties of Diamond:-

➡️It is also chemically resistant and has the highest thermal conductivity of any natural material.

➡️These properties make it suitable for use as a cutting tool and for other uses where durability is required.

➡️Diamond also has special optical properties such as a high index of refraction, high dispersion, and high luster.
