Richard Buckminster Fuller
Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) was an architect famous for his geodesic domes. Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule made up of 60 carbon atoms in an arrangement that resembles, on a microscopic scale, the geodesic dome. So it was given that name in honor of Buckminster Fuller. Buckminsterfullerene is one member of an entire class of molecules composed entirely of carbon in the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube. Spherical fullerenes are sometimes called buckyballs.
Who discovered carbon and when Who discovered carbon and when
Money was not discovered, it was invented.
he discovered speggeti he discovered speggeti he discovered speggeti
The rhombicosidodecahedron was discovered by Archimedes.
The correct name for a buckyball is Buckminsterfullerene. Buckminsterfullerene was named after the architect Buckminster Fuller because Buckminsterfullerene resembles his geodesic domes in terms of structure.
Diamond, graphite, and buckminsterfullerene are made of pure carbon and are insoluble in water.
Approximately one nanometer; see "fullerene" at Wikipedia.
C60
Buckminsterfullerene comes in a variety of sizes and shapes; it does not have a fixed number of bonds. In this respect it is a lot like a polymer.
no, he is the guy who discovered the fullerene (C60). It was named after him. He like made the model for it. But Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, and Harold Kroto discovered it with their new magnifying glass they made on accident. And then they found this new element. They are also know as buckytubes and buckyballs.
Diamond, coal, graphite, coke and buckminsterfullerene are composed primarily of carbon and are insoluble in water.
the formula was co2
Georgia constantine
Diamond and Graphite both have single covalent bonds whereas Buckminsterfullerene has double covalent bonds.
