If YOU write in this area, your question goes to the "already answered" bucket-
Besides its use as jewelry, Diamond is used where anything incredibly hard is needed. Diamond (dust) is used to make saw blades and drill bits that can cut through just about anything.
Graphite, while also composed of carbon, has an entirely different crystal structure, and different uses. Graphite is used as an electrical contactor (a brush) in electrical motors. It makes a great dry lubricant for things like locks, and when mixed with clay, forms the "lead" for ordinary pencils.
What else can I help you with?
Is graphite and diamond an element?
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.
What are examples of pure carbon?
I know diamond is, as long as it's clear and doesn't have color tint. I think coal and graphite, the stuff in pencils, is.
What three basic forms is carbon found in?
Carbon is found in three basic forms: diamond, graphite, and amorphous carbon. Diamond consists of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice, graphite is composed of layers of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern, and amorphous carbon lacks a defined crystal structure.
Is carbon shiny luster?
Only as a diamond crystal.
What allotropic element connects graphite with a diamond?
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.
What 2 forms of carbon are found in nature?
Diamond and Graphite are the two pure forms of carbon

What are forms of carbon?
The three forms of Carbon are diamond, graphite, and fullerene (:
What are the Forms of carbon?
The three forms of Carbon are diamond, graphite, and fullerene (:
What do graphite and charcoal have in common?
Both graphite and diamond are forms of carbon. As such, they are said to be alotropes of carbon. Both occur naturally. Both are mined for industrial purposes, though larger diamonds are sought and used for other things. Both are produced in the earth in geothermal processes. Both can be made artificially. Both are normally solids and highly stable. And they are both difficult to burn, even in an oxygen environment.
Element that exists as two forms such as diamond or grapite and is found in the human body?
Carbon, it is found in every human cell and as diamonds and graphite
An element that has two allotropic forms called diamond and graphite?
Carbon has two allotropic forms called diamond and graphite. Diamond is a hard, transparent crystal structure, while graphite is a soft, dark crystal structure known for its lubricating properties.
Are diamond and graphite different structural forms of carbon?
yes
Describe how carbon atoms are joined together in charcoal,graphite and diamond?
Step 1: Introduction to the question "Diamonds, graphite, and charcoal are all forms of which element?" Take a look at that gorgeous rock on your finger and then look at the lead tip at the end of a pencil. Believe it or not, they are both formed from the same basic element, carbon.
What are Diamond graphite and quartz are examples of?
Diamond, graphite, and quartz are examples of different types of minerals. Diamond and graphite are both forms of carbon, differing in their atomic structure and properties; diamond is known for its hardness and brilliance, while graphite is soft and used as a lubricant and in pencils. Quartz, on the other hand, is a mineral composed of silicon dioxide and is known for its hardness and variety of forms, making it a common component in many rocks. Collectively, these substances illustrate the diversity of mineral structures and properties found in nature.
What is the meaning of corbon?
Carbon is a nonmetal chemical element that has 2 main forms which are graphite and diamond and also other forms such as soot, coal, or charcoal. Carbon can also come in a gaseous form (such as carbon dioxide) when combined with other chemical elements.
