What is the oxidation number of carbon-atom in diamond and graphite?

Pure diamond and pure graphite are composed only of elemental carbon; therefore, the oxidation number of the carbon atoms is 0 by definition.


How can diamond and graphite both be carbon?

This is because the carbon atoms are arranged differently in diamond and graphite. In a diamond, the carbon atoms are in a three dimensional crystal lattice structure. In graphite, the carbon atoms are arranged in a two dimensional sheet.

Carbon atoms can bond together to form?

Different arrangements in allotropes like coal, graphite, diamond or buckmisterfullerenes. Also, the arrangement varies across different compounds containing carbons: cyclic and acyclic hydrocarbons, for example.


How many carbon atoms make up a 5.85 g piece of graphite?

5.85g/12gmol-1 (for carbon) = 0.4875mol. 0.4875(6.02x1023) = 2.935x1023 carbon atoms. Basically, moles times Avogadro's number equals number of representative particles.


How is graphite different from other allotrope's of carbon?

The carbon atoms in graphite are arranged in widely spaced layers.


Does graphite form a tetrahedral network?

NO. Diamond does, graphite contains sheets of carbon atoms.
