Yes. Other allotropes include coal and graphite, such as you might find in a pencil as 'lead'.

What is pure carbon?

Pure carbon refers to carbon in its elemental form, known as allotropes. Common examples include graphite, diamond, and fullerenes. These forms have unique properties due to the arrangement of carbon atoms.

Is diamond the strongest element?

Diamond is a form of carbon, not an element. While diamond is one of the hardest naturally occurring materials, it is not the strongest overall. Materials like graphene and carbon nanotubes have higher tensile strength than diamond.


What is the pure form of diamond?

More correctly 'Diamond' is a pure form of carbon. To clarify further. Diamond is an allotrope of carbon. It is how the carbon atoms are arranged in the adamantine crystal structure. Graphite is anopther pure form(allotrope) of carbon. Its just that the carbon atoms are arranged in a different way. A third pure form (allotrope) of carbon is the Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene). NB An ALLOTROPE is an element that exhits in different physical forms. Do NOT confuse with isotope. NNB Have a look in Wikipedia under Diamond/Adamantine Structure. Similarly, graphite structure , and Buckminster Fullerene structurte. They are all forms of PURE carbon . There is NO other element present.
