Why is diamond more expensive that charcoal even though they have the same element?
DeBeers artificially keeps the price of gemstone quality diamond high by restricting the ammount of diamonds that are on the market. Although top quality diamonds can be grown in the lab for about 200$ per carrot, there are few companies that have the ability to take on the larger gem mining companies. In addition people seem to think that a lab grown gem is somehow worth less than its mined partner, but that's only because diamonds are overpriced in the first place and most people know nothing about chemistry.

Is charcoal a chemical substance?
yes charcoal is simply carbon. Though other impurities may be present.
Which has the less density graphite or diamond?
Graphite is less dense than diamond, due to the differences in crystal structure.
What element is represented by Sp?
Sp is not a symbol for a chemical element.
Does a element contain molecules?
Not necessarily. An element is a pure substance. You may find a pure element in a molecular form, such as Cl2 gas. A diamond could be considered to be a very large, single "molecule" of carbon. The technical answer to your question is 'no', though you may say yes if you are loose with definition. I suspect the answer you want is 'no'.
Where charcoal is found?
Charcoal dates back to a very ancient period, actually, and it started with creating a pile of pieces of wood on their ends (with openings being left in the bottom to admit air), with a central shaft to serve as a flue. Then the entire pile is plastered with turf (moistened clay). The firing begins at the bottom of the flue but slowly starts to spread throughout the rest of the pile. Under average conditions, 100 parts of wood yield about 60 parts by volume, or 25 parts by weight, of charcoal. This operation was so difficult and tedious, it was often left to the professional charcoal burners (colliers) to get it right.Production of charcoal began in Central Europe. It was a major cause of deforestation, though many woods in England were managed as coppices (in theory, trees that were cut and regrew, so that the steady supply of charcoal would be available forever), though critics said that shortages may relate to the result of temporary over-exploitation or the impossibility of increasing production to match growing demand.
Is charcoal a element?
No, charcoal is considered a mixture with different substances in it, but if you have pure graphite, it is considered an allotrope of carbon (like diamond).
Is charcoal formed from plants?
Yes--charcoal is partially-burned wood. Charcoal briquets, though, are a different thing--charcoal plus binders plus petroleum derivatives...

What element makes up a diamond?
Carbon is the element from which Diamond is formed. Just pure carbon. Made deep in the Earth. The hardest substance known (though all diamonds are not equally hard) and rates 10 on the Mohs hardness scale. This is an arbitrary scale. The hardest diamonds come from the NSW fields of Australia, and are in demand as polishing material. Diamonds also have the highest 'melting point' of the elements - around 3820oK. They have the highest thermal conductivity -- about 400 times that of copper. Other allotropes of carbon are charcoal, graphite, and perhaps graphene.
