Diamond atoms are just carbon atoms.
Chemically no atom of any kind can be split.
Via nuclear processes any atom heavier than hydrogen-1 can be split.
There is no such thing as a "diamond molecule"; a diamond is just crystalized carbon atoms. In another sense, a diamond is one big, visible molecule. A one-carat diamond is one big molecule weighing 0.2g and having 10 sextillion atoms. Lots and lots of atoms!
No, diamond is not a silicate. Diamond is composed of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, whereas silicates contain silicon and oxygen atoms in their chemical composition.
Millions/billions. However, they are all CARBON atoms. This is because diamond is an ALLOTROPE of Carbon. Any one carbon atom will be combined in a single bonds to four adjacent carbon atoms. Allotropes are when a given element displays itself in a certain manner. Other allotropes of carbon are Graphite , and Buckminster Fullerene (Footballene).
Yes, atoms can split in a process called nuclear fission. This usually occurs in heavy elements when they absorb a neutron and split into smaller elements, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This phenomenon is the basis for nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
A diamond is composed of carbon atoms. The crystal structure of a diamond contains carbon atoms bonded together in a repeating pattern, with each carbon atom forming four covalent bonds with surrounding carbon atoms. This means that a diamond contains a very large number of carbon atoms, typically on the order of 10^23 atoms.
The nuclear reaction when atoms split is called fission. Fission is where atoms split into smaller particles or atoms.
you can split atoms that's how they created the atom bomb
No, it is impossible to split atoms unless you use high-tech lab gear.
Let's not split atoms!
split atoms
Everything is made of atoms.
When a few atoms undergo fission, they cause many more atoms to split; this process is called an atomic bomb.
Diamond atoms are more densely packed together than are the atoms of any other natural substance.
