Graphite is made of pure carbon atoms. The bond between the C atoms is called a covalent bond.
Network covalent type of chemical bond.
Almost all of the compounds of carbon are formed by covalent bonding. Compounds such as diamond and graphite show strict covalent character in bonding.
The carbon to carbon bonding in Diamond is a covalent bonding.
graphite with the right amount of pressure turns into a type of pearl or a diamond.
Intramolecular bonding = covalentIntermolecular bonding = dispersion

sp2-hybridized atomic bonding (3-way planar oriented, 'honeycomb' structure)
Graphite is made of pure carbon atoms. The bond between the C atoms is called a covalent bond.
Metallic bonding involves delocalised electrons, which can transfer heat and electricity across the metal. Also, graphite and benzene contains delocalised electrons.
Graphite only forms 3 covalent bonds and is arranged in layers so the layers can slide over each other easily.
Graphite Powder or graphite is the slippery type of Carbon! :) hope I helped! :P
This depends very much on the type of graphite.
Graphite has low shear strength due to its laminar lattice structure and weak bonding between the layers which allow graphite to slip in layers resulting in low shear strength. - Dr. Aditi Kulshrestha
