Diamonds are allotropes of carbon. Trace amounts of other minerals may be included, and generally, these trace amounts give a diamond colour. Most commonly, nitrogen is included giving a diamond a yellow cast.
Compounds with lattice structures include ionic compounds like sodium chloride (NaCl) and covalent compounds like diamond. These compounds are made up of a repeating network of atoms or ions arranged in a regular, three-dimensional pattern.
Covalent compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms. They typically have lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds. Covalent compounds are often insoluble in water and non-conductive in their solid state.
Diamond is an allotrope of carbon which may contain traces of other minerals, such as nitrogen or boron, which give the diamond a colour: yellow or blue, respectively. Diamond is not a compound of anything.
Many ionic compounds exist as crystals but covalent compounds as molecules (there are exceptions as diamond though). Ionic compounds would be good electrical conductors unlike molecular compounds.
No, diamonds are not ionic compounds. Diamonds are made entirely of carbon atoms covalently bonded to each other in a crystal lattice structure. Ionic compounds are formed when atoms of different elements are held together by ionic bonds, in which electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
diamond,graphite and graphine
Crystals can be elements (as diamond) or compounds (as sapphire).

I suppose that the cause is that C (diamond) and SiC form huge networks with covalent bonds.
Diamond is a covalent network solid, and those types of compounds have higher melting points than other types of compound.
Covalent compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms. They typically have lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds. Covalent compounds are often insoluble in water and non-conductive in their solid state.
Ionic bonds are typically considered to be stronger, but sometimes compounds such as diamond are even stronger.
it is ofcourse a solid. diamond and coal are two forms of carbon made compounds.
you find carbon in 1.living organisms 2.in organic compounds like diamond,graphite,etc
