Detailed Solution

The carbon–carbon (C–C) bond length in diamond is 154 pm or we can say 1.54 A0.In graphite the C-C bond length is 154pm and C=C bond length is 134 pm. But in benzene all C-C bond lengths are equal to 139 pm due to resonance. The carbon-carbon triple bond or multiple bond in acetylene is the shortest (120 pm) and the strongest. The carbon - carbon bond length in graphite is 142 pm or 1.42 A0.
