Graphite is a form of carbon (C12) in which the atoms are generally arranged in flat layers of hexagonal formation, thus giving it its softness. Diamond is another form of carbon, this time with the atoms linked in a rigid, tetrahedral arrangement which affords the crystal its great strength.

The chemical formula of graphite is C (carbon). Each carbon atom in graphite is bonded to three other carbon atoms in a flat, hexagonal lattice structure, which gives graphite its unique properties such as lubricity and electrical conductivity.

Graphene is a very thin layer of graphite. It is so thin, it is so close to being invisible!
