Which elements are used to make diamonds?

There is only ONE element that makes diamonds. It is Carbon. Carbon has THREE(3) allotropes viz., Diamond, Graphite, and Buckminster Fullerene. An ALLOTROPE is were an element exhibits different physical characteristics.


Is diamond or graphite an element or compound?

They are both the same element , viz. Carbon. Diamond and Graphite are different allotropes of carbon, together with Buckminster Fullerene (Footballene). An ALLOTROPE of an element is where the element exhibits different physical characteristics, such as appearance.

Is carbon metallic?

No, carbon is not a metal. It is a non-metallic element that can exist as a solid (such as graphite or diamond), liquid (such as in molten form), or a gas (such as in carbon dioxide).


Is diamond an element compound or mixture?

Diamond is an ELEMENT. It is NEITHER a compound NOR a mixture. Diamond is a molecule composed of only the atoms of carbon , in a very specific arrangement. In diamond, any one carbon atom is combined to four adjacent carbon atoms in a tetrahedral arrangement (like methane). This tetrahedral arrangement tesselates to become a diamond ( that you can hold). This arramngement of carbon atoms is known as the 'Adamantine' structure. It is also one of the three ALLOTROPES of Carbon. The others being graphite and Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene). NB Do NOT confuse the words 'Allotrope' with 'Isotope'. They have totally different meanings.
