Hello!
The balanced chemical equation for the oxidation of diamonds is the following one:
C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)
As simple as that! You see, Diamonds are an allotropic form of pure carbon. Allotropic forms are different arrangements of atoms. In graphite, the C atoms are arranged in layers like paper sheets, and in diamond, the C atoms are arranged in a tetrahedral structure, which gives them their hardness and their thermal and electrical properties. Burning diamonds would be the same as burning elemental carbon and the chemical equation is the one shown before.
Have a nice day!
A solution's pH will be a number between 0 and 14. A solution with a pH of 7 is classified as neutral. If the pH is lower than 7, the solution is acidic. When pH is higher than 7, the solution is basic. These numbers describe the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and increase on a negative logarithmic scale. For example, If Solution A has a pH of 3 and Solution B has a pH of 1, then Solution B has 100 times as many hydrogen ions than A and is therefore 100 times more acidic.
Answer:
Solid gallium is a blue-gray metal with orthorhombic crystalline structure; very pure gallium has a stunning silvery color. Gallium is solid at normal room temperatures, but as well as mercury, cesium, and rubidium it becomes liquid when heated slightly
Explanation:
gallium is like water it freezes to turn solid!
