Well to be very upfront diamond is very heated and compressed carbon (coal graphite) while graphite is more "pure" carbon than diamonds
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.
carbon is in both diamond and graphite along with countless other things like charcoal
Diamonds, coke, coal, graphite, fullerenes
No, diamonds and graphite are not polymorphs of silicon. Diamonds are a polymorph of carbon, while graphite is also a polymorph of carbon. Silicon does not form diamonds or graphite as polymorphs.
No. They are actually a type of graphite. Diamonds are made of carbon.

Carbon is the element found in diamonds, pencils (graphite), and is abundantly present in various forms on Earth.
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.

No. Both graphite and diamond are allotropes of carbon. They have different molecular structures.

AllotropismThe form of an element having a different molecular structure is a Allotrope. Examples of an Allotrope are diamonds and graphite. An Allotrope is a carbon.
carbon: in the form of graphite. Another form is diamonds
