Densities of diamond and graphite are `(3.5g)/(mL)` and `(2.3g)/(mL)`.
`Delta_(r)H=-1.9(kJ)/("mole")`
Favourable conditions for formation of diamond are:

A

high pressure and low temperature

B

low pressure ad high temperature

C

high pressure and high temperature

D

low pressure and low temperature

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
