Determine the thermodynamic equilibrium constant of the following reaction to explain why graphite is not an easily converted, inexpensive source of diamond at 90 F… C(graphite) = C(diamond). Given this evidence, need diamond owners worry about disintegration of their diamond jewelry to graphite on a hot summer day? How about the loss of diamond through oxidation by the air… C(diamond)+)2 = CO2? Verify with the thermodynamic equilibrium constant for this reaction.
