They do. All matter that exists has some surface area. A carbon sample must have some surface area - not zero.

Why activated carbon is called activated?
Activated carbon has high surface area; this characteristic improve the reactivity of the material.
What is the chemical formula for carbon monoxide samples?
The Chemical Formula for Carbon Monoxide is CO.
Is carbon invisible?
An individual carbon atom is invisible. Large amounts of carbon atoms in samples of elemental carbon such as diamonds or graphite are visible.
Where can samples of Carbon-14 be found?
Fresh Corpses or Stars.
How do they know how much coal is in a coal mine?
They core drill from the surface down and remove samples. These core samples give them the coal seam thickness and coal quality. Multiply the seam thickness by total area and you have the coal reserves, typically measured in acre-feet.
Why is surface area of alveoli in lungs is greater than the surface area of the skin?
The surface area of the alveoli is where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged across membranes. A large surface area enables a greater amount of gas transfer. The skin has two main functions: one is holding all our bits in one place and the other is to maintain body temerature. In the latter role, a large surface area is good for cooling the body but bad for keeping warm. So it is a compromise.
What is the surfqace area of a cylinder?
It is the surface area of the two ends plus the surface area of the curved surface. Surface area of each end is pir2 Surface area of the curved surface is 2pirh Total surface area = 2pir2 + 2pirh
What happens to the solubility of carbon dioxide in water when the surface area of the solution-gas interface is doubled?
Nothing. Solubility depends of temperature and pressure, not surface area. At the same temperature and pressure C02 has the same solubility, whether you have 10 cm square surface area or 1000 cm2. Maybe you meant the rate of diffusion?
What is the surface area is the sum of the areas of all the surfaces of a three dimensional object called?
The total surface area! The total surface area! The total surface area! The total surface area!
What is the surface tension of carbon tetra chloride?
surface tension of carbon tetra chloride is 26.80dynes/cm
Why did astronauts drill holes in the moon?
To take core samples of the lunar surface.
What did the astronauts use to collect geological samples on the Moon's surface?
lunar lander
