The outermost shell of each carbon atom has 4 electrons.
in diamonds, 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
