Besides its use as jewelry, Diamond is used where anything incredibly hard is needed. Diamond (dust) is used to make saw blades and drill bits that can cut through just about anything.
Graphite, while also composed of carbon, has an entirely different crystal structure, and different uses. Graphite is used as an electrical contactor (a brush) in electrical motors. It makes a great dry lubricant for things like locks, and when mixed with clay, forms the "lead" for ordinary pencils.

Different forms of the same element?
Allotropes-different forms of the same element ex. diamond and graphite for carbon different arrangement of the atoms Actually it is diamond, charcoal, and GRAPHITE... Not carbon
What are two continuous lattices that forms?
the two continuous lattices that carbon can form are found in diamond and graphite
What are the Forms of carbon?

What are forms of carbon?
The three forms of Carbon are diamond, graphite, and fullerene (:
What do graphite and charcoal have in common?
Both graphite and diamond are forms of carbon. As such, they are said to be alotropes of carbon. Both occur naturally. Both are mined for industrial purposes, though larger diamonds are sought and used for other things. Both are produced in the earth in geothermal processes. Both can be made artificially. Both are normally solids and highly stable. And they are both difficult to burn, even in an oxygen environment.
Element that exists as two forms such as diamond or grapite and is found in the human body?
Carbon, it is found in every human cell and as diamonds and graphite

How are diamonds and graphites different and the same?
Different is only the arrangement of atoms in diamond or graphite. Diamond and graphite are allotropic forms of carbon.
Are diamond and graphite different structural forms of carbon?
yes
