larger crystals
The crystalline structure of graphite and diamond are very different.
it is less denser ithan air
The covalent bonds in the diamond are shorter than the distance between the layers in graphite. Also the atoms present in the diamond arepacked closer together.
Graphite and diamond form a polymorphous mineral series which have identical chemical composition but different structures or shapes. The reason minerals with identical chemical composition can form different structures is due to the physical conditions, in particular temperature and pressure under which they formed. Graphite has a sheet structure horizontally with weak vertical bonds joining the horizontal sheets. This produces a weak unstable structure. Diamonds on the other hand have a very different structure and form a octahedron structure which is much more compact and denser structure and a much more stable compound which is the result of the extreme pressure during its formation.
No, ammonia is less dense than air.
Graphite is less dense than diamond, due to the differences in crystal structure.
Yes, graphite is more common than diamond.
The crystalline structure of graphite and diamond are very different.
Graphite is denser than charcoal, and not as easily smudged.
Different is only the arrangement of atoms in diamond or graphite. Diamond and graphite are allotropic forms of carbon.
A diamond is a solid, while water is a liquid.
Of course less denser, because a gas is always less denser than liquid.
it is less denser ithan air
Of course less denser, because a gas is always less denser than liquid.
For example, comparing olive oil with ethanol the alcohol is less denser.
Well to be very upfront diamond is very heated and compressed carbon (coal graphite) while graphite is more "pure" carbon than diamonds
The covalent bonds in the diamond are shorter than the distance between the layers in graphite. Also the atoms present in the diamond arepacked closer together.
