Yes. Although diamond is very hard, it is also brittle. Hit a diamond with a hammer, and it WILL scratch the hammer- but the hammer will also shatter the diamond.
The amount of force required to break a diamond is about 600,000 pounds per square inch.
You can cut a diamond with a laser -- because of its value, you might not want to 'break' it.
I am likely on a train, as the sound of "clickety-clack" is associated with train tracks. The phrase "break-neck speed" suggests that the train is moving quickly.
Yes, a real diamond can be broken or chipped if subjected to enough force or impact. While diamonds are one of the hardest materials, they can still be damaged if hit at the right angle with enough force. Regular wear and tear or accidental impacts can also cause a diamond to chip or break.
No, diamonds are the hardest known natural material and can only be scratched or cut by another diamond. Attempting to break a diamond with a sledgehammer will likely damage the hammer rather than the diamond.
You can take the diamond and test to see if it can scratch glass(warning: this may cause damage to the diamond) also if you own a magnifying glass put the diamond up to it... If there are tiny imperfections it's most likely real, you could also literally smash it with a hammer... If it doesn't break or even chip, the diamond is real.
Half carat is the term used to measure the weight of the real diamond. A diamond's weight does not define or detract from the fact that the diamond is or is not a real diamond.
Ask a jewelerTake your stone to a local jeweler who can use a probe to determine whether or not what you have is a real diamond.hit it with a hammer. if it doesnt break, its diamond
Diamond cannot break.
You can take your diamond to a local jeweler who can use a probe to help you figure out if the diamond is a real diamond.
diamond it is the only thing that can break a diamond is a diamond
a real diamond can scratch glass and if the diamond gets scratched it's fake
No, a simulant diamond is not a real diamond. It is a material that mimics the appearance of a diamond but is not made of the same physical and chemical properties as a natural diamond.
A diamond fracture is a break or a crack in the stone.
Take your black diamond to a jeweler and ask the jeweler to use the probe to verify that the diamond is a real diamond.
Probably. But this is a poor use of a diamond. If you want to break a mirror, most any object pushed or pitched against it will break it.
No, diamond cannot break obsidian. Obsidian is harder than diamond on the Mohs scale, which measures the hardness of minerals. Diamond itself is the hardest natural material, but it cannot scratch or break obsidian due to its unique molecular structure.
