No, because they are too heavy. The only rock that will sometimes float on water is pumis.
Although, you may coat small (roughly 1mm diameter) diamonds in pine oil and then they will float.
They are presently using a process called froth flotation to remove diamonds from gangue minerals at a mine called EKATI in Canada. Diamonds are naturally hydrophobic, you just need them to be small enough so that the force exerted by the surface tension outweighs the force applied by gravity.
What else can I help you with?
Does octane sink or float in water?
Octane is less dense than water, so it will float on the surface of water.
Can a egg can or can't float in water?
an egg can float in salt water.
Does an egg float in regular water?
no an egg does not float in regular water.
How much water does it take to float an egg?
it takes about ten water to float an egg
Ice float on top of water?
Ice float on water because the density is lower.
If the stone sinks in water is it a real diamond?
Diamonds do not float.
Do diamonds float on water?
No they sink to the bottom because they hold no air.
Will diamonds float in oil?
No. For their size, diamonds are heavy and will not float.
Do real diamonds float?
No, real diamonds do not float in water because they are very dense and sink to the bottom. The high density of diamonds is due to their tightly packed carbon atoms, which makes them heavier than water.
Can small diamonds float?
no
Do all fake diamonds float?
no not all of them because some just wernt made to float
Can jeremejevite float on water?
Jeremejevite does not float on water.
Does a real diamond sink or float in water?
A real diamond sinks in water because its high density makes it heavier than water. This can be a simple test to help differentiate real diamonds from fake ones, as impostors like cubic zirconia or glass are less dense and will float.
What are the results of can water float on water?
Yes, water can float on water. This is because of surface tension, which allows objects with a lower density than water to float on its surface. Items like boats or water bugs can float because of this phenomenon.
Is tent can float in water?
There are tents designed to Float in water. But not all tents designed to float.
Why doesn't fish float on water?
fish does float on water!
Will sand float in water will soil float in water?
Soil floats on water!
