A Diamond
B Graphite
C Fullerene
Allotropes are the different physical forms in which an element exists. Carbon has two types of allotropes- crystalline and amorphous forms.
Crystalline form of carbon has a regular and definite arrangement of carbon atoms in it. For example, diamond, graphite and fullerene.
Coal is an amorphous form of carbon as it does not contain a regular arrangement of carbon atoms in it.
