Pure Carbon is the form of Diamond made of atoms of carbon.
It is the arrangement of the atoms of carbon , that give diamond.
If we take a molecule of methane (CH4). The four hydrogens are arranged in a tetrahedral manner. These four hydrogens are substituted by more carbon atoms. Then each substitution in turn in substituted by more carbon atoms et.seq., The whole arrangment is known as the 'ADAMANTINE' structure.
NB Look in Wikipedia under Diamond or Adamantine Structurte.
It is PURE carbon because there are no other elements present !!!!!!
What else can I help you with?
What is the pure form of diamond?
More correctly 'Diamond' is a pure form of carbon. To clarify further. Diamond is an allotrope of carbon. It is how the carbon atoms are arranged in the adamantine crystal structure. Graphite is anopther pure form(allotrope) of carbon. Its just that the carbon atoms are arranged in a different way. A third pure form (allotrope) of carbon is the Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene). NB An ALLOTROPE is an element that exhits in different physical forms. Do NOT confuse with isotope. NNB Have a look in Wikipedia under Diamond/Adamantine Structure. Similarly, graphite structure , and Buckminster Fullerene structurte. They are all forms of PURE carbon . There is NO other element present.
Is diamond an element or a compound?
Diamond is a pure element made up of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal structure.
Can you remove carbon from a diamond?
No, carbon cannot be removed from a diamond as it is a pure form of carbon. The structure of a diamond is a tightly bonded network of carbon atoms, and it is not possible to chemically or physically remove the carbon without altering the structure of the diamond.
What is he chemical formula of a diamond?
C, its a pure carbon compound with no definite number of Carbons since the entire structure of a diamond is one lattice, therefore a diamond is just carbon.
A diamond is an example of and element compound or mixture?
A perfect/pure diamond is made exclusively of carbon (the element). The specific conditions (temperature, pressure, time) that are required for diamonds to form and the fact that a carbon atom has four free electrons allow it to settle in the form of a crystal; that crystal is what we call the diamond. Given the strength of the links between the atoms; the diamond is the hardest natural solid on our planet. It's also important to note that graphite is also pure carbon but the way the carbon atoms are linked to each other (the number of electrons shared between each atom is two vs. one for the diamond) gives it completely different properties. The carbon atoms form layers and the graphite is soft and slippery; which makes it a nice dry lubricant that is sometimes used in lock cylinders. It's also opaque; unlike diamond. Diamond is an element, an allotrope of carbon.
Is diamond C an element or compound or homogeneous mixture or heterogeneous mixture?
Pure substance; it is one form of pure carbon.
Is a diamond a compound or an element?
Diamond is not an element but it is a compound of carbon. It is fully made of carbon atoms
What is pure carbon?
Pure carbon refers to carbon in its elemental form, known as allotropes. Common examples include graphite, diamond, and fullerenes. These forms have unique properties due to the arrangement of carbon atoms.
Is a diamond crystal a compound or element?
No, diamond is a form of the pure element carbon.
Is a diamond a pure substance?
yes, a diamond is a crystalline form of pure carbon, there for making it a pure substance.

A pure form of carbon that forms a very hard crystal?
Diamond is a pure form of carbon that forms very hard crystals due to its strong covalent bonds. Its structure is made up of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice, providing exceptional hardness and high thermal conductivity.
Are diamonds made of carbon dioxide?
Diamonds are made of carbon atoms arranged in a specific crystal lattice structure, not carbon dioxide. Carbon from the Earth's mantle is subjected to high pressure and temperature, causing it to crystallize into diamond over millions of years.
Why is diamond a pure substance?
Because Diamond is an allotrope of carbon - diamonds are purely made out of carbon.
What percent of a diamond is made of carbon?
100%, Diamonds are pure carbon
What is the element diamond made from?
Diamonds are made of carbon.Diamond is an allotrope of carbon, i.e. a form of pure carbon - although they often contain flaws and imperfections which are not carbon.Carbon
What element is found in the form of diamonds?
Carbon is the main element in diamonds because it forms covalent bonds and a crystal lattice which is long chains of carbons that in turn form a very strong bond.
