Diamonds are composed of carbon in a tetrahedral lattice. The correct option is C.

<h3>What are diamonds?</h3>

Diamonds are one of the allotropes of carbon. The other allotrope of carbon is graphite.

Thus, diamonds are made up of carbon atoms that are tightly packed together. Each carbon atom in a diamond is strongly bonded to 4 other carbon atoms, resulting in the formation of a tetrahedral structure.

Diamonds are composed of carbon in a tetrahedral lattice. That is option C.

<h3>What is a diamond?</h3>

A diamond of defined as an allotrope or one of the major forms of the element, carbon in nature.

These carbon atoms are arranged within the diamond in a face centered cubic tetrahedral lattice shape.

Therefore, Diamonds are composed of carbon in a tetrahedral lattice.

From the list below, choose which groups are part of the periodic table. metals acids flammable gases nonmetals semimetals ores
iris [78.8K]

The periodic table of the elements are describe the electronic configuration of the elements on which the properties of the elements depends. Among the given groups only metal, non-metal and semi-metal group are the part of periodic table. The metallic property depends upon the binding energy of the electrons with the nucleus. Thus the elements which have the valence electrons more near to the nucleus that is s-block elements are more metallic in nature. On the other hand the elements which have the valence electrons far from the nucleus are more non-metallic in nature like p-block elements. However the binding energy or the attraction of the outermost electrons to the nucleus depends not only its valence electrons position but also some other factors like shielding effect, effective nuclear charge etc.

The elements which are in between the metals and non-metals can be classified as semi-metals.

Although the conductivity of a material is an inherent property of the metals but sometime the nonmetals or semi-metals are also behave like a conductor due to presence of the other elements, thus it cannot be a p[property of the periodic table. Similarly acidity, flammable gases are not part of the periodic table.
