No. Diamonds are a pure form of carbon, one of its allotropes. Coal is a complex mixture of carbon, and such things as moisture, hydrocarbons, inorganic compounds and nitrogen and sulfur compounds. The carbon content varies with where and how the coal was formed, and tends to increase with age. The oldest, hardest coals such as anthracite contain over 85% carbon, whilst the youngest, the 'brown' coals or lignite may have as little as 25% carbon.
What else can I help you with?
Why aren't diamonds made in a laboratory considered minerals?
Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical composition and crystal structure as natural diamonds, but they are not considered minerals because they are not formed through natural geological processes. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and crystal structure.
What is the word for a statement in which chemical formulas are used to describe a chemical reaction?
The word for a statement that uses chemical formulas to describe a chemical reaction is a "chemical equation." This equation represents the reactants and products involved in the reaction, showing their respective chemical formulas and the conservation of mass. Chemical equations can be balanced to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation.
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.
Are all chemical formulas the same?
Of course not. water is H2O salt is NaCl lye is NaOH. different formulas for every pure substance.
How is it that substances can have the same chemical formulas but make different types of matter?
You think probable to isomers.
If a person is allergic to coal will they be allergic to diamonds?
probably not because diamond is not the same als coal
How you made diamonds from tequila?
You cannot make diamonds from tequila -- their chemical properties are not the same.
Are lab diamonds as hard as real diamonds?
Yes, lab diamonds are just as hard as natural diamonds because they have the same chemical composition and crystal structure.
What is coal mainly made up of?
Carbon. Coal has a few different types and grades, but hard anthracite coal is almost pure carbon. Same as graphite, soot and diamonds.
Do diamonds have more substances than coal?
Yes, diamonds have a more pure and crystalline structure compared to coal, which is composed of multiple carbon-containing compounds. Diamonds are composed of pure carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, whereas coal is formed from the remains of plant material that have undergone heat and pressure without the same level of purification.
Are quartz and diamonds the same?
No, quartz and diamonds are not the same. Quartz is a mineral made of silicon and oxygen, while diamonds are made of carbon. Diamonds are harder than quartz and have different physical and chemical properties.
Is mining coal a physical or chemical change?
Mining coal is a physical change because the act of extracting coal from the earth does not alter its chemical composition. The coal remains chemically the same before and after the mining process.
How do caol and diamond differ?
Raw materials for coal and diamonds are the same. Buried dead plant material begins the process to coal. But the process for creating diamonds requires enormous pressures, so diamonds are formed at extreme depths (over 90 miles underground). Volcanos bring the diamonds to the surface or at least to depths where mining is practical. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond
Is breaking coal into pieces chemical or physical change?
Breaking coal into pieces is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the coal. The coal remains composed of the same elements before and after being broken into pieces.
Lab created diamonds have gained significant attention in recent years as an alternative to natural diamonds.?
With advancements in technology, scientists can now produce diamonds in laboratories that possess the same chemical and physical properties as natural diamonds
Can someone make diamonds out of something?
You bet! Creating diamonds is a billion years procedure. Even if you hold a piece of coal in your hand all your life tighter than tight you won't live long enough to get that carbon structure even close to a diamaond. So better leave that job to be done by mother nature herself.
Are genuine diamond the same as a real diamond?
Yes, "genuine" and "real" diamonds typically refer to diamonds that are naturally formed in the Earth's crust. Synthetic or lab-created diamonds are not considered genuine or real in the traditional sense, even though they have the same chemical composition as natural diamonds.
