Carbon naturally occurs in two forms: diamond and graphite. Why do these two forms have very different properties?

The differences in the properties of diamond and graphite is as a result of how their particles are arranged in space. This space arrangement leads to distinct crystal structures for the two compounds. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in tetrahedral shape while in graphite the carbon atoms arrayed in planes.
 Hope this helps :)

1.Which statement best describes scientific laws
gtnhenbr [62]
In a way, all of the answers could be argued for (for example: in the first option: if the scientists' opinions are understood to be "informed understanding of the causes of events"), but one of the options is the best:
Scientific laws describe specific relationships in nature without offering
an explanation.

The reason why  I think this is true is that many laws are phased too short and too concise to provide comprehensive explanations, instead they describe the relationships that must hold.


One of the options is pplain false:
Scientific laws explain why natural events occur. -"Scientific laws were theories that have been tested, proven, and adopted as laws." - since they are not adopted as laws.
