Explanation:
Diamond is a solid form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a crystal structure called diamond cubic. At room temperature and pressure, another solid form of carbon known as graphite is the chemically stable form, but diamond almost never converts to it.
Crystal system: Cubic
Crystal habit: Octahedral
Crystal class: Hexoctahedral (m3m); H-M symbol: (4/m 3 2/m)
Melting point: Pressure dependent

The outermost shell of each carbon atom has four electrons. In diamond, these electrons are shared with four other carbon atoms to form very strong chemical bonds resulting in an extremely rigid tetrahedral crystal. It is this simple, tightly-bonded arrangement that makes diamond one of the hardest substances on Earth
