Real and fake diamonds can look similar to the untrained eye, but there are key differences that can help distinguish them. Real diamonds are formed naturally and have unique characteristics like high clarity and brilliance, whereas fake diamonds are usually made of materials like cubic zirconia and lack the same brilliance and hardness. To confirm the authenticity of a diamond, it's best to have it assessed by a professional jeweler.
These kind of materials are known as elements.
Crystalline materials have fixed relative locations of atoms due to their orderly arrangement in a repeating pattern. Examples include salt (NaCl) and diamonds. Glass, on the other hand, does not have a fixed atomic structure like crystals and is considered amorphous.
Sapphire is one of the hardest materials and can only be scratched by materials that are harder than itself, such as diamonds or other sapphires. Common materials like glass, metal, and plastic are not hard enough to scratch sapphire.
i think its diamonds!(like in minecraft)
No diamond is fake; but there are fake diamonds. Because natural diamonds are expensive and engaging to the human eye, many people want to own and wear diamonds, so a fake diamond can be substituted in the place of a real stone.
Imitation diamonds or fake diamonds are also known as faux diamonds. Or "simulant" as used by the industry insiders. It refers to materials, such as CZ, that look like another gem.

Probably at an art store like Blick or Michael's. You can also try Lakeshore
You can ask for CZs, crystals, glass, ice and find what you're looking for. Moissanite can also pass very successfully for diamond. ===== Keep in mind that De Beers would like man-made diamonds classified as "fake" but they are definitely REAL. Man-made diamonds have the exact same chemical composition and structure as those dug out of the ground. Gem-quality diamonds grown in a lab can be chemically, physically and optically identical (and sometimes superior) to naturally occurring ones.
true friends are hard to find and fake friends are everywhere.
Your answer depends on the composition of the 'fake diamond' and the composition of glass. Each mineral has a rating on the Mohs Scale of hardness. The harder mineral will scratch the softer mineral.

No, diamonds do not refract gamma rays because gamma rays have such high energy that they pass through most materials without being significantly altered or slowed down. Diamonds, like most materials, are not effective at refracting gamma rays.
A simulated diamond is a man-made stone that is designed to look like a real diamond, but does not possess the same properties or value. Simulated diamonds are typically made from materials such as cubic zirconia or moissanite and are often used as a more affordable alternative to natural diamonds.
No, a diamond cannot cut through metal. While diamonds are one of the hardest materials known, they are brittle and could fracture when used to cut through hard metals like steel. Diamond is more commonly used to cut and shape other materials like glass, ceramic, or other diamonds.
