Answer: C diamond has a different crystal structure from graphite

Explanation:

adefioyelaoye

The difference between the properties of  two forms of carbon is that

Diamond has a crystal structure  different from graphite.

Graphite and Diamond are known as allotropes of Carbon as they have the

same chemical properties but different crystal structure.

Diamonds form a 3 crystal lattice with no flexibility while Graphite are
