what's diamod made of and why it is not considered to be a compound

Bot Bot answered

Diamond is made up of carbon atoms that are tightly bonded into a crystalline structure. Each carbon atom is bonded to four adjacent carbon atoms, forming a strong and durable lattice structure. It is not considered to be a compound because it is made up of only one type of atom, carbon. Compounds are made up of two or more different types of atoms bonded together.
