The statement which is true of the carbon atoms that make up a diamond is that: B. They are always vibrating in place.

Carbon can be defined as a non-metallic and tetravalent chemical element with an atomic number of six (6). Thus, carbon is found in Group VI of the periodic table and it is represented with the chemical symbol C.

Diamond is an allotrope of the chemical element carbon and its atoms are arranged in a crystal structure commonly referred to as diamond cubic.

Basically, a diamond is made up of about 99.95 percent atoms of carbon and these carbon atoms are always vibrating in place because they are bonded to four (4) neighboring carbon atoms.
