Carbon.
Buckyballs, or to give it a more correct name is Buckminster Fullerene ( Footballene).
It is an arrangement of at least 60(sixty) carbon atoms. These carbon atoms are integrated as pentagons and hexagons, to form a sphere.
NB A modern (Black and White)Associattion Football has panels in this arrangement. Hence the name 'Footballene') .
What else can I help you with?
How can I make buckyballs?
To make buckyballs, you can start by using a process called arc discharge to produce carbon molecules. These molecules can then be arranged into the shape of buckyballs, which are also known as fullerenes. This process requires specialized equipment and knowledge of chemistry.
What are the three forms of the element carbon?
The three forms of the element carbon are diamond, graphite, and fullerenes (such as buckyballs and nanotubes). Each form has distinct properties and structures due to different arrangements of carbon atoms.
What is found in buckyballs?
Buckyballs, or buckminsterfullerenes, are molecular structures made up of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical shape. They are known for their high stability and unique chemical and physical properties.
What are the uses of buckyballs?
Buckyballs, or buckminsterfullerene, have a range of potential uses due to their unique structure. These uses include drug delivery systems, superconductors, lubricants, and even potential applications in electronics and materials science. Buckyballs have also shown promise in areas such as nanotechnology and medical imaging.
What are diamond graphite and buckyball examples of?
Diamond, graphite, and buckyballs are all examples of allotropes of carbon. Allotropes are different forms of the same element that have distinct properties due to their unique atomic arrangements. Diamond is a hard, transparent crystal, graphite is a soft, black material used as a lubricant and in pencils, and buckyballs (fullerenes) are hollow carbon molecules with potential applications in nanotechnology.
Are bucky balls an element compound or mixture?
Buckyballs, also known as buckminsterfullerenes, are a type of carbon allotrope consisting of carbon atoms arranged in a soccer ball-like structure. Therefore, buckyballs are a type of compound, not an element or mixture.
How many Buckyballs are in a kilogram?
Buckyballs can be in a range of molar/molecular masses, so the number of them in one kilogram can be very different.

Can you damage electronics wipe memory etc by keeping Buckyballs to close to them?
From to the Buckyballs official website:"We haven't heard of a single case in which Buckyballs erased or affected electronics, including from the many computer stores where Buckyballs are retailed. Better safe than sorry though; Keep Buckyballs at least a few inches away from anything that might have a magnetic storage device in or on it, including computers, cassette tapes, credit cards and hotel room keys.
