Carbon
Diamond is a particular elemental compound composed of carbon.
Carbon, whether it be soot or diamond, is an element.
Diamond is a pure element made up of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal structure.
definition of electronic configuration
Diamond is a form of the element carbon, not a compound. Each atom in a diamond crystal is made up of only carbon atoms bonded together in a specific arrangement.
Diamond consists of only one element (carbon). Whereas Silicon dioxide consists of two different elements (silicon and oxygen) that are chemically bonded in a fixed ratio. Hence Diamond is an element and Silicon dioxide is an compound.
Crystals can be elements (as diamond) or compounds (as sapphire).
Technically, diamond is neither an element, a compound, or a mixture. Diamond is made up of pure carbon atoms, so it is not a mixture, and a compound by definition requires two or more different elements. The best definition using the above terms is that diamond is a mineral made up of the same element.
No, diamond is a form of the pure element carbon.
