No. Diamonds are a pure form of carbon, one of its allotropes. Coal is a complex mixture of carbon, and such things as moisture, hydrocarbons, inorganic compounds and nitrogen and sulfur compounds. The carbon content varies with where and how the coal was formed, and tends to increase with age. The oldest, hardest coals such as anthracite contain over 85% carbon, whilst the youngest, the 'brown' coals or lignite may have as little as 25% carbon.

Are all chemical formulas the same?
Of course not. water is H2O salt is NaCl lye is NaOH. different formulas for every pure substance.
How is it that substances can have the same chemical formulas but make different types of matter?
You think probable to isomers.
Is it true or false that isomers have the same physical properties because the chemical formulas are identical?
False
Do Graphite and diamonds have the same chemical compositions and different crystalline structures?
Both graphite and diamond are composed of the element carbon, but have different crystalline structures.
Do isomers of the same molecule have identical chemical properties?
When two molecules have different configurations but the same atomic composition the two molecules cannot be said to have the same physio-chemical properties. In fact, a simple rearrangement, even with identical chemical formulas, can drastically change the properties of a substance.
If a person is allergic to coal will they be allergic to diamonds?
probably not because diamond is not the same als coal
How you made diamonds from tequila?
You cannot make diamonds from tequila -- their chemical properties are not the same.
What is coal mainly made up of?
Carbon. Coal has a few different types and grades, but hard anthracite coal is almost pure carbon. Same as graphite, soot and diamonds.
How do caol and diamond differ?
Raw materials for coal and diamonds are the same. Buried dead plant material begins the process to coal. But the process for creating diamonds requires enormous pressures, so diamonds are formed at extreme depths (over 90 miles underground). Volcanos bring the diamonds to the surface or at least to depths where mining is practical. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond
Lab created diamonds have gained significant attention in recent years as an alternative to natural diamonds.?
With advancements in technology, scientists can now produce diamonds in laboratories that possess the same chemical and physical properties as natural diamonds
What are Lab Grown Diamonds?
Lab grown Moissanite Diamonds are as natural as diamonds mined from the earth. Lab grown Diamonds are Similar to World Mined Diamonds in Every Way, but they are Developed in a Lab. They have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as mined Diamonds and show the same Fire, Scintillation, and Sparkle. Visit Here:- Nakshu Jewels
What does subscript indicate in chemical formulas?
The number of atoms of the same element in the molecule
Are the coal and the diamond the same chemical material?
Yes, both are carbon and with different molecular structures.
How is chemical and mechanical energy the same?
Chemical energy appears as heat, such as burning coal with oxygen.Mechanical energy is the result of a force being generated
What are the causes for depletion of diamonds in India?
Diamonds take millions of years to form. Diamond Mining removes large quantities from the earth in a very short time. It's the same reasons behind the depletion of coal stocks !
Propanol and isopropanol are isomers This means that they have?
different molecular formulas but the same chemical properties
Are diamonds an earth material?
Yes. You can consider diamonds 'natural resources' much the same as trees in the forest or coal in the veins of geography. They are formed deep below the earth's surface and erupt to be found by humans via volcanic pipes.
