What kinds of bonds are present in graphite?
Answered by Timofey
In graphite, the C-C bonds in the planes are very strong, but the force between the different planes is quite weak, and they can slip over one another. This explains the "soft" feel of graphite, and the fact that it is used as a lubricant, for example in motor oil.

Other "Big" Covalent Molecules

In solids like diamond and graphite, the different atoms all bond to one another to form one very large molecule. The atoms are bonded to each other in all directions in diamond, and in two directions (within the planes) in graphite, with no bonding in the other direction. Some important covalent molecules involve atoms bonding to each other repeatedly along just one direction, with no bonds in the others. These are called polymers.
