Diamond Molecular Model
Product Code : LSK-CL-10078
Diamond Molecular Model (SKU LSK-CL-10078) represents the arrangement of carbon atoms in diamond, so students can see why the hardest known natural substance is so strong: every atom is held by four bonds in a continuous framework. Chemistry and physics teachers use it when introducing allotropes and covalent solids. Supplied by Science Lab Supplies of Ambala, India, it is available to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
This desk-sized structure model measures 26 x 24 x 23 cm and weighs 1.5 kg, compact enough to pass around a class yet large enough to show the three-dimensional carbon framework clearly from the front bench. It focuses on one substance, diamond, and on the way its atoms are arranged.

Applications and Experiments for the Diamond Molecular Model
The model answers a common student question: why is diamond so hard when graphite, made of the same carbon, is soft? Viewing the atom arrangement makes the tetrahedral bonding clear. It fits NCERT Class 10 allotropes of carbon, Class 11–12 bonding and solid state, and B.Sc. inorganic and materials chemistry.
- Class 10 carbon and its compounds: diamond as an allotrope of carbon.
- Class 11 chemical bonding: four covalent bonds per carbon in a tetrahedral arrangement.
- Class 12 solid state: covalent network solids and their high melting points.
- Physics and materials lessons on hardness and electrical insulation.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Diamond Molecular Model is supplied as a single unit as described above, measuring 26 x 24 x 23 cm and weighing 1.5 kg. Any optional accessories or companion models are listed separately on the quotation, so you can see exactly what each line covers.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
One model for a single classroom or a batch for every section of a school can be quoted. Science Lab Supplies gives the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity on each quotation, and structure models for graphite or sodium chloride may be listed alongside.
Registered as an exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Ask for a quote on the contact page, collect items in the enquiry cart, or check the lab tender page if you buy through tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Diamond Molecular Model show?
It shows how carbon atoms are arranged in diamond, each bonded to four neighbours in a rigid three-dimensional framework that explains the hardness of diamond.
How big is the model?
It measures 26 x 24 x 23 cm and weighs 1.5 kg, which suits front-bench demonstration and handling by small groups.
How is it different from the Diamond Crystal Model?
The Diamond Crystal Model is an assembly kit of 57 jacks and 84 connectors. This molecular model is listed as a unit with its own size and weight; ask for both on one quotation to compare.
Who supplies the Diamond Molecular Model?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges and distributors, and quotes for single pieces or tender quantities.
Related Carbon Models
Diamond is taught alongside graphite and the hybridisation that explains both, so these four items round out a carbon allotropes lesson. They let students assemble a lattice themselves, compare the layered form, and link the atom arrangement back to sp3 orbitals and bond types.
