The standard state Gibbs free energies of formation of C(graphite)+C(diamond) at T=298 K are 

 fG°[C (graphite)] = 0 kJ mol-1

f G°[C (diamond)] = 2.9 kJ mol-1

The standard state means that the pressure should be 1 bar, and substance should be pure at a given temperature. The conversion of graphite to diamond reduces its volume by  2×10-6 m3 mol-1. If graphite is converted to diamond isothermally at T=298 K, the pressure at which graphite is in equilibrium with diamond is
