I agree, diamond will be a diamagnetic material.

Maheriya Akshay said:   9 years ago
Yes, I agree diamond is diamagnetic material.

Dheeraj said:   9 years ago
No this is false because diamond is a diamagnetic material. Diamond doesn't conduct the electricity that's why there no chance to create any magnetic field. So that's why it is a diamagnetic material. And diamond is the compound of the carbon but carbon conduct the electricity except for diamond there is no other compound which doesn't conduct electricity.

Can you please explain it correctly, carbon can conduct electricity then why diamond cannot conduct electricity?

Diamond is an insulator.

Rohini said:   8 years ago
Yes, I agree diamond is an insulator.

As said above diamond forms covalent bond, so it does not have any free electrons to exhibit any magnetic or electric properties so, even though some carbon compounds conduct electricity diamond does't. So diamond is not an para magnetic material.
