How many half steps are between c AND F SHARP?
There are five whole steps in a heptatonic (7-note) major scale. They occur between the 1st and 2nd notes, the 2nd and 3rd notes, the 4th and 5th notes, the 5th and 6th notes, and the 6th and 7th notes. In practice, the scale usually includes an 8th note, which is one octave above the Tonic (first note). In practice, scales are played in both ascending and descending form; therefore the relation between the 7th and 8th notes is important! Half-steps thus occur between the 3rd and 4th notes, and between the 7th and 8th notes. Therefore, in response to your question, there are 2 half-steps in any major scale.

name five diffrent between minor and magor?
I believe you are asking for five differences between the major and minor scales in music. Here are some differences: The intervals: The major scale is built on a series of whole steps and half steps, whereas the minor scale is built on a different series of whole steps and half steps. Specifically, the minor scale has a minor third (three half-steps) between the first and third notes, while the major scale has a major third (four half-steps) between those notes. The mood: The major scale is often associated with a bright, happy, or triumphant mood, while the minor scale is associated with a darker, sadder, or more introspective mood. The harmony: The chords used in music written in a major key are often different from those used in a minor key. For example, a piece in the key of C major might use the chords C, F, and G, while a piece in the key of A minor might use the chords Am, Dm, and E. The relative keys: Every major key has a relative minor key, and every minor key has a relative major key. These keys share the same key signature (i.e. the same sharps or flats) but have a different tonic note. For example, the relative minor of C major is A minor. The use in different genres: Major and minor scales are both used in many different genres of music, but some genres tend to use one more than the other. For example, a lot of traditional folk music is written in a minor key, while many pop songs are written in a major key.

Why do you not use the keys b and f in the pentatonic scale?
A major pentatonic scale uses the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th degrees of a major scale, in C major that means we use C, D, E, G, and A and we skip F and B since a major pentatonic scale uses only five notes. Interestingly enough, the word "penta" which is found in the word pentatonic, literally translates into "five tones" (penta-tonic).
