The correct answer is: it is a chemical change, which could change some of the intensive and extensive properties of the carbon.
To answer this question, we must bear in mind that a chemical change involves the breaking of bonds in a substance and subsequent rearrangement of atoms to form a new substance.
This is why we say that in a chemical change, new substances are formed. Another name for a chemical change is a chemical reaction.
Having said that, it is clear that as graphite changes to diamond, bonds are broken and carbon atoms are rearranged.
This rearrangement of atoms leads to different intensive and extensive properties for graphite and diamond. For instance, graphite conducts electricity but diamond does not conduct electricity. Also, diamond is much denser and harder than graphite. A physical change can not lead to change in some of the intensive and extensive properties of the carbon.
