Why element makes diamonds and pencil lead?

Carbon constitutes pencil lead, charcoal and diamond. Although they appear different in appearance, they are chemically the same.

Graphite or pencil lead has such an arrangement, that there are free electrons which make it a conductor of electricity. Elements like this, which are chemically the same but exhibit different physical properties are called allotropes, and the phenomenon is termed as allotropy.
