Difference between Diamond and Graphite
| S.NO. | Diamond | S.NO. | Graphite |
| 1. | Diamond has a three-dimensional network structure. | 1. |
Graphite has a two-dimensional sheet like
structure consisting of a number of benzene rings fused together. |
| 2. | It is the hardest natural substance known. | 2. |
Graphite is soft and greasy and is used as
solid lubricant for heavy machinery operating at high temperatures. |
| 3. |
It is a bad conductor of electricity but is
a very good conductor of heat. Because of hardness and high thermal conductivity, diamond tipped tools do not overheat and hence are extensively used for cutting and drilling purposes. |
3. |
It is a good conductor of both heat and electricity.
Because of high electrical conductivity, graphite is used for making electrodes of battery and arcs. |
| 4. |
It s a transparent substance with high refractive index.
Therefore, it is used for making gemstones and jewellery. |
4. | It is an opaque grayish black substance. |
Simplest compounds of carbon are Hydrocarbons(compounds having atoms of carbon and hydrogen only)
