Revise AQA GCSE Chemistry 2.3 Structure and bonding of carbon with the question bank and revision guides.
In diamond, each carbon atom forms four covalent bonds with other carbon atoms in a giant covalent structure, so diamond is very hard, has a very high melting point and does not conduct electricity. Students should be able to explain the properties of diamond in terms of its structure and bonding.
