Study Notes
-
Atoms strive for a full outer shell, leading to bonding between atoms to achieve stability
-
Two main types of chemical bonds: ionic and covalent
-
Ionic bonding: electrons donated, causing positive and negative ions
-
Covalent bonding: electrons paired and shared between atoms
-
Diamond's crystal structure is based on strong, regular, and symmetrical tetrahedral covalent bonding
-
Crystallography: science of crystals, classified into seven types of symmetry
-
Diamond crystal structure: covalent bonding of carbon in a tetrahedral formation
-
Diamond's unique properties due to its strong and regular crystal lattice
-
Diamond crystal habits: appearance influenced by temperature, pressure, growth rate, and impurities
-
Secondary forms of diamond: dodecahedron and icositetrahedron
-
Factors affecting diamond's primary forms: temperature, pressure, growth rate, and impurities
-
Surface features: trigons, growth marks, and crystal forms like octahedron, macle, and parallel growth
-
Other diamond forms: Boart, cubes, ballas, and carbonado, with distinct properties and surface features.
