X= Diamond, Y= 1.54 mathringA, Z= 1.42 mathringA

Q. The most stable form of carbon at high temperature is $X$ . The $C - C$ bond length in diamond is $Y$ while $C - C$ bond length in graphite is $Z$ .
\What are $X, Y$ and $Z$ respectively?

Graphite, $1.42 \overset{˚}{A}, 1.54 \overset{˚}{A}$

Coke, $1.54 \overset{˚}{A}, 1.84 \overset{˚}{A}$

Diamond, $1.54 \overset{˚}{A}, 1.42 \overset{˚}{A}$

Fullerene, $1.54 \overset{˚}{A}, 1.54 \overset{˚}{A}$

$X =$ Diamond, $Y = 1.54 \overset{˚}{A}, Z = 1.42 \overset{˚}{A}$
