Which outcome occurs due to increased pressure in diamond synthesis?

A)Carbon atoms form strong covalent bonds
B)Graphite transforms into amorphous carbon
C)Thermal vibrations enhance electron mobility
D)Sp3 orbitals favor graphitic sheet formation

💡 Explanation

Carbon atoms form strong covalent bonds under pressure due to induced **nucleation**, forcing them into organized diamond lattice configuration. Therefore, higher pressures result in crystalline arrangements rather than disorder, because atoms cannot move independently.
