Structure of Diamond
  • It has a definite crystalline arrangement where each carbon atom is terahedally bonded by four carbon atoms.
  • These in turn are joined to four carbon atoms each. This arrangement gives a closely packed, hard, three-dimensional structure to diamond. 
  • This makes diamond the hardest natural substance.
