Is diamond 100 percent carbon?
yes, diamond is made of carbon. Diamond is a macromolecule made of many carbon atoms. Each carbon atom is joined to 4 more carbon atoms each. Having each atom of carbon bonded to four other atoms is why diamond is so hard- there are lots of strong chemical bonds to overcome.
How many carbon atoms are in 2 grams of 1 carat diamond?
1.004x1023
What is the atomic number of diamond?
Diamond does not technically have an atomic number as it is not an element. a diamond is a crystal made from many atoms of carbon which has an atomic number of 6.
How many carbon atoms in a hope diamond of 44.4 carrots?
A carrot? Well I'll assume you mean carat. A carat is unit of mass used by the diamond trade. 1 carat is 200mg. 44.4 carats is therefore 8.8 grams Diamonds are pure carbon. Avogadros number tells us ho many atoms are in a gram atom of carbon this is 6.023x1023 atoms in 12.011 grams of carbon therefore there are (6.023/12.011) X 8.8 X 1023 atoms I make that 4.41 x 1023 atoms
How many carbon atoms are in fumarate?
four carbon atoms
How many atoms are in diamond?
Diamond is composed of individual carbon atoms in a covalent network, so a diamond can in a way be though of as one giant molecule. The number of atoms depends on the size of the diamond. There are about 1022 or ten sextillion atoms for every carat.

How many atoms are in a diamond?
a Carbon lattice structure (Carbon Atoms)Diamond is made of carbon atoms.
How many protons and neutrons does a diamond have?
A diamond is composed of carbon atoms. The atomic number of carbon is 6, so all carbon atoms have 6 protons in their nuclei. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope of carbon. Carbon-11 atoms have 5 neutrons, carbon-12 atoms have 6 neutrons, carbon-13 atoms have 7 neutrons, and carbon-14 atoms have 8 neutrons. Refer to the related links below to see the Wikipedia articles on carbon and diamond.
How many carbon atoms are in the diamond unit cell?
In a diamond unit cell, each carbon atom is located at the corners of the unit cell. Since there are eight corners in a unit cell, each shared by 8 adjacent unit cells, the contribution to the total number of carbon atoms is 1/8 of a carbon atom per unit cell. Therefore, there is 1 carbon atom per unit cell.

How many carbon atoms are there in a diamond?
There is no such thing as a "diamond molecule"; a diamond is just crystalized carbon atoms. In another sense, a diamond is one big, visible molecule. A one-carat diamond is one big molecule weighing 0.2g and having 10 sextillion atoms. Lots and lots of atoms!
What is hardest object diamond or platinum?
Diamond, Its atom structure formed by many carbon atoms in such a way makes it very strong indeed

How many carbon atoms are there in a diamond with a mass of 52mg?
A diamond is pure carbon, less subtle impurities, so..., 55 mg (1 gram/1000 mg)(1 mole C/12.01 grams)(6.022 X 1023/1 mole C) = 2.6 X 1021 atoms of carbon ==================
How does the number of atoms affect substance?
I assume you're asking about density when you say "substance." Take the example of carbon. In one form, it is a black powder (think soot). In its densest form it is diamond. A teaspoon of diamond has many more carbon atoms in it than a teaspoon of soot.
