What kind of rock is a diamond a metamorphic rock an igneous rock or a sedimentary rock?
A diamond is a crystalline mineral form of the element carbon. Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary are descriptive terms used to classify types of rocks, not minerals such as diamond.Diamond is accepted as a valid mineral by the International Mineralogy Association.Diamonds are found in igneous rock which is brought to the surface of the earth by volcanic eruptions bringing magma to the surface. Diamond itself is strictly an allotrope of the element carbon, a mineral, one form of crystal that can be created from carbon.However, the diamond itself is a metamorphicmineral, as it forms under heat and pressure from solid-state processes. It forms independently of the igneous rock in which it is found, qualifying it as a type of xenocryst.
How do you separate the carbon element and oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Carbon is solid (black powder, grey graphite or brilliant diamond) and methane is a (very light, explosive) gas. There is no need to separate, they alredy are! and do NOT dissolve in each other, so they'll stay separated as well.
How do you separate sulphur from roll sulfur and carbon?
By the process of Filtration.
What liquid can be used to separate mixture of iron filings and sulfur?
Carbon disulfide can be used to separate a mixture of iron filings and sulfur. This is because carbon disulfide can be used to dissolve sulfur, thus leaving you with the iron filings.
What state is carbon dioxide on earth?
Carbon dioxide can be a solid, liquid or gas. At standard temperature and pressure it is a gas.
What rock was Diamond transformed before being a metamorphic rock?
Diamond is a mineral form of carbon. It is not a metamorphic rock, but a mineral formed from extreme heat and pressure.
Are diamonds made deep underground in a rock?
A diamond is a metamorphic rock formed from carbon. Diamond formation requires intense heat and extreme pressure, which naturally occurs deep underground.
Can two elements can have the same spectrum.?
Carbon and Tin.
What kind of metamorphic rock do you find in a pencil?
A pencil contains graphite, this is an allotrope of carbon. As such it is an elemental mineral rather than a metamorphic rock!
Do silicon has carbon?
No, silicon is an element separate to carbon
Why cold drinks are bottled under a carbon dioxide pressure greater than 1 ATM?
The Carbon Dioxide must be 'injected' under pressure - because it doesn't dissolve in the drink. It is always separate - which is why carbonated drinks eventually go 'flat' if they're left exposed to the air.
Can carbon be taken out of diamonds?
Diamonds are carbon, you can not separate the two.
What does limestone create?
it is limestone. it can be made from metamorphic and it is made from weathering it down.
What is alpha cleavage in mass spectrum?
Alpha clevage is the act of breaking the carbon-carbon bond adjacent to the carbon bearing a specified functional group.

Do carbon and nitrogen make oxygen?
No. Carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen are separate elements.
What material is diamond made from?
Diamond is a form of pure carbon.Other minerals can give the diamond a tint, such as boron "B", which gives a stone a blue cast, and "N", which gives the stone its yellow cast.Diamonds are formed from carbon, deep within the Earth's mantle.
