The element is carbon, and the difference between these two allotropes is the crystal lattice formation that develops in each, based on where each is formed.

Is graphite and diamond an element?

No, graphite and diamond are not elements. They are both forms of the element carbon. Carbon is the element, while graphite and diamond are allotropes, which are different forms of the same element with different physical and chemical properties.


What allotropic element connects graphite with a diamond?

The element is CARBON. Graphite , Diamond and Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene) are the three allotropic forms of carbon. An ALLOTROPE of an element is when the element exhibits different physical characteristics, like appearance etc., NB Do Not confuse with ISOTOPE.


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.


What element do diamond and graphite have in common?

They are both formed of the element carbon.


What element is name of diamond and graphite?

Both diamonds and graphite are allotropes of carbon.


Could a mixture be made up of only elements no compounds?

Only if the element forms allotropes, such as diamond and graphite, which are both allotropes of carbon but can be separated by density.


What element is diamond and your pencil led are made of?

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.


Which element makes up a diamond and graphite?

Both diamond and graphite are made up of the element carbon. The difference lies in how the carbon atoms are arranged. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in a rigid, three-dimensional structure, while in graphite, the carbon atoms are arranged in layers that can easily slide past each other.


What do graphite and charcoal have in common?

Both graphite and diamond are forms of carbon. As such, they are said to be alotropes of carbon. Both occur naturally. Both are mined for industrial purposes, though larger diamonds are sought and used for other things. Both are produced in the earth in geothermal processes. Both can be made artificially. Both are normally solids and highly stable. And they are both difficult to burn, even in an oxygen environment.

A diamond and a pencil are made of what element?

A diamond and a pencil lead (graphite) are both made of carbon. The difference is the crystalline structure of the carbon atoms.


A diamond and your pencil lead graphite are made of this same element?

graphite in a pencil and diamond are from carbon .both are the allotrope of carbon
