    Carbon


    Color
    - Coal, but darker

    Melting Point - 3550°C

    Properties - Powder

    Uses - When at high temperatures (3000) and high pressure (200), Carbon (CRBN) will turn into Diamond (DMND). When Oxygen (OXYG) and Carbon come into contact, they make Carbon Dioxide (CO2). When Wood (WOOD) is burned, it leaves behind Carbon. When in contact with Hydrogen, it will make GAS. Since Carbon is nonflammable, nonconductive, and has a high melting point, it can be used as an alternative to diamond. It can also be used as an insulator.

    Realistic wood residue and CO2/GAS creating abilities are good, but not the diamond thing. Since diamond is unbreakable, you wouldnt be able to get it back to CRBN.

    NICE

    Nice Idea! its a little Brilliant.

    I Can see the whole diamond thing being an issue.

     

    But support, probably needs more uses as they kind of look more like properties.

     

    EDIT: Whoops.. Was looking at another thread at the time and completely forgot all my chemistry...

     

    Carbon is flammable and conducts, just not very well in the latter regard.

    No, A)carbon IS flammable B)carbon IS conductive C)graphite IS better

    @cyberdragon Please dont flame other people, if you like my suggestion, say it on that thread.

    (I just dont want to get in trouble)

    @cyberdragon Graphite is a form of Carbon last time i herd it was.

    Indeed, it is an allotrope of Carbon, like Diamond.

    Coal underpressure turns into, Diamond! but i can see problem with it turning into diamond part.

     

    COAL - A FORM OF CARBON

    GRAPHITE - A FORM OF CARBON

    CO2 - A GAS STATE OF CARBON

    DRY ICE - A SOLID STATE OF CO2.

     

    A list about Carbon.

    >coal ~ IRL a pretty pure form of carbon, varied purity of 50-99%
    >CO2 ~ literally burnt carbon
    >DMND ~ literally 100% carbon

    How can carbon conduct? It doesn't have metal/any ions in it and all four (standard four) bonds are full.
    Graphite can because they have a loose electron and that means they conduct in only one plane...

    A solid state of carbon dioxide, yes.
