Yes, generally, this is true. Especially when one uses the word 'broken' to connote an accident.
Rarely, however, if a stone has a flaw or weak spot and is hit 'just right' so as to fracture the stone at the weak spot, then you could say that the stone was 'broken'. Generally, stones with this sort of visible flaw is not sold as jewelry by a reputable dealer and would certainly be documented with any certificate the accompanied a stone.
Yes, lab diamonds are just as hard as natural diamonds because they have the same chemical composition and crystal structure.
Diamonds, steel, and rocks are hard objects.
only after a diamond has been cut into its shape does it become hard to "cut" in its natural state lines in the stone can be cut or broken with various tools!! this is because of their 3-D networkof strong carbon-carbon atoms, this gives it strengh in all directions. with this network there are no weak links.
Diamonds are one of the hardest naturally occurring materials, so they can only be scratched or cut by another diamond. However, because of their structure, diamonds can still be shattered or damaged by a hard blow, so it is important to handle them with care.
Yes, lab-grown diamonds are just as hard as natural diamonds. They have the same chemical structure (pure carbon) and score a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, making them equally durable and ideal for everyday wear. The only real difference is how they’re made — in a lab instead of deep underground.
Diamonds can be broken if hit hard enough with a hammer, more so if it is on an anvil. But so far diamonds are the hardest stones we know of.
Diamonds are very hard and durable, but they can still be broken by a strong impact or force.
Diamonds are so hard that they can only be cut by other diamonds. Diamonds are forever. (!) The bunt flew out of the diamond.
The turtles shell was hard as diamonds.
a talc ring. while diamonds are stones that are hard and will last long, talc is soft and easily broken.
Diamonds are one of the hardest natural substances on Earth, so they can only be broken by a forceful impact or by being cut with another diamond.
Diamonds
Yes, lab diamonds are just as hard as natural diamonds because they have the same chemical composition and crystal structure.
because they are so hard
Diamonds are very hard, so they don't wear or blunt much when drilling through softer materials.
Because they look nice and are hard to get. It takes a lot of work to find and dig up diamonds in diamond mines.
While diamonds are extremely hard, they can be broken by other diamonds due to their hardness. When a force is applied to a diamond in a certain direction, it can cause it to fracture along its planes of weakness.
