A diamond and a pencil lead (graphite) are both made of carbon. The difference is the crystalline structure of the carbon atoms.
there both made up of carbon
Actually, carbon is the element: diamond is an allotrope of carbon.
Diamond is not an element but a form of carbon, which is a nonmetallic element. Diamonds are made up of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, and they are prized for their hardness and brilliance.
Yes, either as Diamond (the jewel) Coal (the fossil fuel) or Graphite (the grey thing inside your pencil).
Diamond is a gemstone made up of only carbon atoms. Its structure and composition give it unique properties, such as its exceptional hardness and brilliance.

Both diamonds and pencil lead are made out of the element carbon. The difference lies in their structures: diamonds have a crystal lattice structure, while pencil lead is made up of layers of graphite.
graphite in a pencil and diamond are from carbon .both are the allotrope of carbon
Carbon. Diamond and graphite (pencil lead) are allotropes of carbon, meaning different atomic arrangements of the same element. They are also both covalent network solids.
You're thinking of carbon. Both pencil lead and diamonds are allotropes of carbon.
Yes, carbon.supplement. when an element exists in two or more forms, these forms are known as an allotrope. Carbon has three allotropes, graphite, diamond, and ordinary carbon.
The grey or black core of a pencil is made of graphite which is a form (known as an allotrope) of the element carbon. To vary the hardness of the 'lead' in the pencil the graphite may be mixed with clay or some other substances.
