Detailed Solution

C (graphite) is more thermodynamically stable than C (graphite).
For the reverse process, ΔH<0, Also ΔS changes very negligible due to this transition.
Hence, ΔG is <0 for the transition from C(diamond) to C (graphite)
More heat is evolved due to combustion of less stable form.
Hence, options B, C, D are the appropriate answers.
