Diamond molecules have a crystal habit that is octahedral and a crystal system that is Isometric-hexoctahedral (Cubic), so yes.
The hardest naturally occurring substance is called diamond. It is a form of carbon.
diamond is the hardest and graphite is the softest
Diamond use to be the hardest known natural substance now it is the mineral lonsdaleite at 58% stronger then diamond is the first the second hardest is wurtzite boron nitride at 18% stronger then diamonds they are both extreamly rare natural minerals sources http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16610-diamond-no-longer-natures-hardest-material.html
diamond's hardness is a factor of 10. So this is the highest hardness, no mineral has this hardness! You can't scratch a diamond.
Yes, diamonds can be found naturally in the Caribbean. They are often found in alluvial deposits, typically washed down from rivers and streams originating from volcanic pipes or kimberlite deposits in the region. However, commercial diamond mining is not a prominent industry in the Caribbean.
The atomic mass or atomic weight as it is sometimes called.
All elements lighter than Uranium (atomic number: 92) occur naturally except for technetium (43).
Polycrystalline materials are solids that are composed of many crystallites of varying size and orientation. The variation in direction can be random (called random texture) or directed, possibly due to growth and processing conditions. Fiber texture is an example of the latter
Carbonado, commonly known as the "Black Diamond", is the toughest form of natural diamond. It is an impure form of polycrystalline diamond consisting of diamond, graphite, and amorphous carbon. It is found in alluvial deposits in the Central African Republic and mainly in Brazil.
A polycrystalline structure contain crystals with a random orientation.
No, diamond is the hardest naturally occurring mineral.
A diamond
hydrocortisone, or pyetroleum jell
The hardest naturally occurring substance after diamond is lonsdaleite, also known as hexagonal diamond. It is a rare form of carbon with a hexagonal crystal structure that is even harder than regular diamond due to its unique arrangement of atoms.
The hardest naturally occurring substance is called diamond. It is a form of carbon.
diamond is the hardest and graphite is the softest
No, diamond is not an alloy. Diamond is a naturally occurring mineral made up of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure.
