Answer:

Graphite and Diamond are different because they have different structures. ... However each carbon atom in Diamond has 4 covalent bonds with other Carbons, making it extremely strong and hard. On the other hand, each carbon in graphite is bonded to three carbons, and therefore graphite is formed in layer

Also:

Each carbon atom in a diamond is linked to four other carbon atoms. Each carbon atom in graphite is linked to three other carbon atoms. Diamond is poor conductor of electricity due to the absence of free electrons. Graphite is good conductor of electricity due to the presence of free electrons in its structure.
