$\mathrm{C},$ $\mathrm{Si},$ and $\mathrm{Ge}$ have the same lattice structure. Why is the $\mathrm{C}$ insulator?

1.	because ionization energy for $\mathrm{C}$ is the least in comparison to $\mathrm{Si}$ and $\mathrm{Ge}$ .
2.	because ionization energy for $\mathrm{C}$ is highest in comparison to $\mathrm{Si}$ and $\mathrm{Ge}$ .
3.	the number of free electrons for conduction in $\mathrm{Ge}$ and $\mathrm{Si}$ is significant but negligibly small for $\mathrm{C}$ .
4.	both (2) and (3).
