The oxidation number of carbon in diamond is 0.
Explanation:
- Oxidation number cannot be assigned to carbon when it is associated with diamond.
- This is primarily due to the fact that it is in an elemental stage. Diamond and even graphite are two substances which are already present in their respective elemental stages.
- It would have been possible to calculate the oxidation number of carbon if it was associated with some other elements like the oxygen.
- But in the case of diamond and graphite, the oxidation number for carbon is equal to 0.
