Is lead from our pencils diamonds?
No. They are actually a type of graphite. Diamonds are made of carbon.
Does graphite make diamonds?
No. Graphite and diamond are both allotropes of carbon, each with a different and distinct molecular structure.
What is a solid element used in diamonds and graphite?
carbon is in both diamond and graphite along with countless other things like charcoal
Do Graphite and diamonds have the same chemical compositions and different crystalline structures?
Graphite and diamonds have the same chemical composition, which is pure carbon, but their crystalline structures are different. Graphite has a layered structure, while diamonds have a tightly packed, three-dimensional crystal lattice structure. This difference in structure gives them their unique physical properties.
How are diamonds and graphites different and the same?
Diamonds and graphite are both made of carbon atoms but have different structures. In diamonds, carbon atoms are arranged in a 3D network of covalent bonds, making it the hardest natural substance. On the other hand, graphite has carbon atoms arranged in layers with weak van der Waals forces between layers, giving it a slippery feel.
Is lead from our pencils diamonds?
No. They are actually a type of graphite. Diamonds are made of carbon.
Diamonds and graphite are examples of what solid?
Diamonds and graphite are both allotropes of carbon.
Are both graphite and diamonds compound?
Both diamond and graphite are allotropes of pure carbon.
How are diamonds and graphite alike?
Both diamond and graphite are allotropes of carbon.
Are quartz and feldspar examples of polymorphs?
No, they are examples of silicate minerals. However, quartz is the collective name for a bunch of SiO2-polymorphs, like tridymite, coesite, alpha-quartz and beta-quartz. Likewise, K-feldspar is the collective name for the KAlSi3O8-polymorphs microcline, orthoclase and sanidine. Polymorphs are chemically identical, but differ in the crystallographic structure. To confuse it, each polymorph mentioned above is also a mineral ...
Is graphite in diamonds?
No. Both graphite and diamond are allotropes of carbon. They have different molecular structures.
The chemical composition of graphite and diamond is?
Graphite and Diamonds are both allotropes of Carbon.
What fact do diamonds and graphite share?
Both are allotropes of carbon.
Does graphite make diamonds?
No. Graphite and diamond are both allotropes of carbon, each with a different and distinct molecular structure.
Polymorphs are two minerals that have the same?
Polymorphs are two minerals that have the same chemical composition, but different crystal structures. For example, pyrite is isometric and marcasite is orthorhombic, but both are composed of iron sulfide. Similarly, diamond and graphite are both composed of carbon, but the former is isometric and the latter is hexagonal.
What is used in diamonds and pencils?
You're thinking of carbon, which Mother Nature used to form both diamonds and graphite.
What element is name of diamond and graphite?
Both diamonds and graphite are allotropes of carbon.
