Some substances have the same chemical composition, but their atoms are arranged differently. A classic example is carbon. A pencil lead is made of graphite, which contains only carbon atoms. A diamond also contains only carbon atoms. However, the carbon atoms in a diamond are packed more closely together. Would you expect the density of graphite and a diamond to be the same? Explain your answer.
