Diamonds do not melt, but they can burn. Diamonds are formed at extremely high pressure and temperatures, but will burn in the presence of oxygen, like an oxygen torch at 1472 degrees Fahrenheit.

No, not if the diamond is on earth, and not closer to the sun.


Can you melt a diamond and mix it with calcite?

Yes you can but it would take a very hot temperature for the diamond to melt. Not any normal hot temperature. Diamond has the highest melting point (3820 degrees Kelvin, or 6416.33 degrees F.)

Does a real diamond melt through solid ice?

No more than any other substance would. It also depends on the temperature of the diamond, as is would for any object.


What temperature will a diamond melt?

Diamond mineral has the highest melting point of any mineral: 3820 degrees Kelvin, which is 6416.33 degrees F, or 3546.85 degrees C.


Why diamond is very difficult to melts?

Diamond is difficult to melt because of its strong covalent bonds. These bonds are very strong, requiring a high amount of energy to break them and melt the diamond. Additionally, diamond has a very high melting point of about 3,500 degrees Celsius, further contributing to its difficulty in melting.


What will happen to a diamond when it is heated?

It gets hotAnother AnswerSince diamond has such a high melting point -- 3,820 degrees Kelvin -- the diamond will remain stable until the heat reaches that temperature, at which point it will melt.(The temperature in Celsius is 3,546.85 degrees or 6,416.33 degrees Fahrenheit.)

Can the sun melt a diamond on the sun?

No, a diamond would not melt on the sun because diamonds have a very high melting point (over 3500 degrees Celsius) while the surface temperature of the sun is around 5500 degrees Celsius. Diamonds also require oxygen to burn, which is absent on the sun.

At what temperature does diamond sublime?

Neither graphite nor diamond melt when heated - at a temperature of about 4800 °C, they sublime into gases. It takes a lot of energy to make them sublime as many strong covalent bonds need to be broken.
