Any element can melt.
The chemical formula of diamond is C. Diamond (from the ancient Greek ἀδάμας, adámas) is the allotrope of carbon where the carbon atoms are arranged in an isometric-hexoctahedral crystal lattice.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond
This is a trick question because "I2" is the chemical symbol for MOLECULAR iodine (your question did not say melt Iodine, it said melt I2).Only gaseous iodine is composed of I2 molecules and as it is a gas it CAN NOT melt.
Diamond is a form of carbon, an allotrope, which has the chemical symbol C and doesn't have a formula per se. That's it. Just "C". It is pure carbon.
The chemical typically sold as ice-melt is calcium chloride, which is commonly formulated in pellet or flake form. The chemical formula for calcium chloride is CaCl2.
a diamond's melting point is so highmagma will not melt it
No more than any other substance would. It also depends on the temperature of the diamond, as is would for any object.
You can melt a diamond, because anything can melt given enough heat. Diamond, however, has the highest melting point of any known mineral: 3820 degrees Kelvin, 6416.33 degrees Fahrenheit, or 3546.85 degrees Celsius.
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.
Diamond mineral has the highest melting point of any mineral: 3820 degrees Kelvin, which is 6416.33 degrees F, or 3546.85 degrees C.
You could melt a diamond to turn it gooey. Diamond has the highest melting point of any known mineral, 3,820 degrees Kelvin. This is equal to 3,546.850 degrees Celsius or 6,416.33 Fahrenheit.
The melting point of diamond is sufficiently high that magma would not melt it.
YES about 5000+° more hotter than the maximum of diamond!
No, the sun cannot melt a diamond. Diamonds have a very high melting point of about 3,550 degrees Celsius, which is much higher than the temperature of the sun's surface.
Liquid nitrogen or dry ice perhaps?
which chemical is used to melt the iron
No, diamonds cannot be melted at standard atmospheric pressure and temperature. Diamond will transform into graphite under high temperature and pressure before it can be melted. Mixing it with calcite is not feasible due to the extreme conditions required for melting diamond.
