No. Phosphorus is an element. Diamonds are made of carbon.
Yes because it is made of Carbon and Carbon is one of the strongest element.
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.
Element.
One View"Is diamond an element or compound"Actually diamond is an element.Diamond is made up largely of pure crystallized carbon. Diamond is one of the Earths rarest and most beautiful gemstones and is an inorganic substance that has its own chemical composition. Diamond is the only gemstone that is made of only one element, Carbon.Joseph R. Villarreal, Graduate Gemologist (GIA)White Fire Diamonds, Inc.The Correct ViewActually a diamond is an object not an element. The element is carbon and the carbon molecules combine under extreme conditions to form a diamond. This example is no different than an iceberg. An iceberg is comprised of water molecules that combine under extreme conditions to form an ice pack which can then break into icebergs. But an iceberg is not water, an iceberg is comprised of water molecules. In this way a diamond is comprised of carbon. The element is carbon and the diamond is an object formed of that element.
Diamond is not an element but it is a compound of carbon. It is fully made of carbon atoms
Actually, carbon is the element: diamond is an allotrope of carbon.
Diamonds are carbon.
Diamond is composed of the element carbon.
No, diamond is a form of the pure element carbon.

Regardless of the pressure, diamond is always made from 100% carbon.
