    Depends on the temperature, and the pressure.

    Under enough pressure you can actually get liquid diamond.

      But is it in the tetrahedral geometry that characterizes diamond? Cause otherwise it’s just liquid carbon.

        It’s a solid in the same way sand is. It’s small enough to act as a liquid.
