Best Answer

This isn't really a good question because there are more than three forms of carbon. Allotropes of carbon include:

Amorphous Carbon

Graphite

Diamond

Lonsdalite

C60 (Buckminsterfullerene)

C70

C540

Carbon Nanotubes

Since it's pretty clear this is a homework question, I'm gonna suggest you answer with the first three forms. Your teacher might call amorphous carbon something else, so don't blame me if you get marked down. Of course you could always find the answer in your textbook (novel concept..)
