Best Answer

the element carbon is $700/g

Depends on the arrangement of the Carbon atoms.

As graphite, about $3000 per tonne = $3 per kilo = 0.3c per gram.

As diamond, the $700 per gram price would apply to a 'reject' stone. A high quality stone would work out at perhaps $100,000 per gram or more.

I would love to hear a price for buckyballs or carbon nanotubes!

It depends on the purity and the form.

If you don't need it to be absolutely pure, then about the same price as coal, because that's what coal mostly is.

If you need very high purity carbon, then it can be quite expensive, particularly if you want the tetrahedral network form.... we call that "diamond."
