Graphite has layered structure with molecular orbitals with electrons. Which anaigns more electrical conductivity parallel to the plane of carbon atoms of each layer On otherside, sp3 hybridized carbon atoms in diamond tetrahedrally surrounded by four carbon atoms. Heat given to the solid substantially distributed due to perfect 3D net work of atoms as shown in figure. Here bond is replaced by spring for understanding vibrational mode between two bonded atoms, which responsible for faster conduction of heat
