  1. Diamond
  2. Graphite
  3. Fullerene
  4. Charcoal

hintHint:

It is used to make expensive jewelry.

The correct answer is: Diamond


    The correct option is a)Diamond.
    In diamond crystals, each carbon atom is bound to four other carbon atoms by strong covalent bonds. The four surrounding carbon atoms are at the four corners of the tetrahedron. This makes diamond the hardest element.
