Well to be very upfront diamond is very heated and compressed carbon (coal graphite) while graphite is more "pure" carbon than diamonds
No, graphite and diamond are not elements. They are both forms of the element carbon. Carbon is the element, while graphite and diamond are allotropes, which are different forms of the same element with different physical and chemical properties.
The element is CARBON. Graphite , Diamond and Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene) are the three allotropic forms of carbon. An ALLOTROPE of an element is when the element exhibits different physical characteristics, like appearance etc., NB Do Not confuse with ISOTOPE.
They are both the same element , viz. Carbon. Diamond and Graphite are different allotropes of carbon, together with Buckminster Fullerene (Footballene). An ALLOTROPE of an element is where the element exhibits different physical characteristics, such as appearance.
Carbon is the element that makes up coal, graphite, and diamond. These forms of carbon have different structures due to variations in the arrangement of carbon atoms.
Carbon.
Graphite, Diamond.
Diamond, graphite and carbon black are the most common allotropes of CARBON
graphite in a pencil and diamond are from carbon .both are the allotrope of carbon
They are not made the same- but they come from the same element- carbon. However, carbon can take different crystal shapes. One of those is graphite, a very different one is diamond.
The three forms of the element carbon are diamond, graphite, and fullerenes (such as buckyballs and nanotubes). Each form has distinct properties and structures due to different arrangements of carbon atoms.
They are both formed of the element carbon.
Both diamond and graphite are made up of the element carbon. The difference lies in how the carbon atoms are arranged. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in a rigid, three-dimensional structure, while in graphite, the carbon atoms are arranged in layers that can easily slide past each other.
