The thing that created it can destroy it. Intense heat can destroy a diamond. Diamond is super compressed allotrope of carbon. Concentrated Sulfuric acid (Oleum) cannot even change graphite from your pencil anyway so Diamond is out of question. Stomach acid is too weak (low molar Hcl). Try maybe Superfluoroantimonic Acid(antimony pentahydrate in a hydrofluoric acid base.)
I good blow with a hardened steel chisel at angles specific to the fractional planes of the crystal lattice will easily shatter a diamond into diamond crystal shards.
Diamonds were cleaved for centuries by this manner, and an amateur could destroy a gem quality diamond easily if not well trained.
You could make a very expensive light from a diamond! Its called a carbon arc lamp.
I don't know that a diamond carbon arc lamp has ever been tested but it would work the same way as a graphite based carbon arc lamp. The carbon would evaporate away into carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and unburnt(sublimation technically) diamond dust.
I wonder if a pink diamond would give off a tinted light! teehee
5 million dollars a carat!
You can heat a diamond with a torch and place it in liquid oxygen it will chemically transform into gases.
One can also use a simple device called a thermal lance. It will easily destroy a diamond.
You think probable to carbon dioxide, fluorocarbons, etc.
Chemical compounds.
No. Diamonds are a pure form of carbon, one of its allotropes. Coal is a complex mixture of carbon, and such things as moisture, hydrocarbons, inorganic compounds and nitrogen and sulfur compounds. The carbon content varies with where and how the coal was formed, and tends to increase with age. The oldest, hardest coals such as anthracite contain over 85% carbon, whilst the youngest, the 'brown' coals or lignite may have as little as 25% carbon.
In a chemical reaction, the reactants are the compounds that undergo a change to form products. These reactants interact with each other, resulting in the formation of new compounds or substances. The products are the compounds that are produced as a result of the reaction between the reactants.
Hundreds thousands chemical equations of organic compounds are known !
Chlorine can damage diamonds by causing them to become dull or cloudy due to chemical reactions between the chlorine and the diamond. It is not recommended to expose diamonds to chlorine, such as in pools or cleaning solutions, as it can lead to discoloration or surface damage. It is best to avoid contact between diamonds and chlorine to preserve their brilliance and sparkle.

Chemical compounds.
Chemical compounds are formed from chemical elements.
_____ are colored chemical compounds that Osborb light
Iron and silicon are elements, not chemical compounds. Chemical compounds are formed when elements combine in specific ratios through chemical bonds.
Isomers are chemical compounds which have the same chemical formula while having different chemical structures. AlH3 does not have compounds with different chemical structure. Therefor AlH3 is not an isomer.Isomers are chemical compounds which have the same chemical formula while having different chemical structures.

Diamonds are formed from carbon, which is the only element contained in diamonds, except for traces of other elements, such as nitrogen and boron. Trace elements can give colour to diamonds.

You cannot make diamonds from tequila -- their chemical properties are not the same.
