What are the key differences between the properties of diamond and graphite?
Diamond and graphite are both forms of carbon, but they have different properties. Diamond is a hard, transparent crystal with a high melting point, while graphite is a soft, opaque material with a lower melting point. Diamond has a three-dimensional structure, making it hard and durable, while graphite has a layered structure, allowing it to be used as a lubricant.
Can carbon be scartched or dented?
Carbon in its pure form lacks the typical hardness of a metal, so it can be scratched or dented with sufficient force or pressure. However, the hardness can vary depending on the form of carbon, such as graphite or diamond, with diamond being extremely hard and difficult to scratch or dent.
Is a diamond hard or soft?
Diamond IS the HARDEST of naturally occurring materials because it is composed of extremely small atoms (carbon) packed extremely tightly where they share atoms in a type of bonding known as covalent bonding. Termed lattice density, diamond packs atoms more tightly than any other natural material and that combined with the covalent bonding is why it is so hard.
