Fullerenes (like the one shown) are made up of hexagonal rings of carbon atoms (like in graphite or graphene) and alternating pe

ntagonal and heptagonal carbon rings to allow curvature of the surface producing molecules that have a complete hollow shape.
The extremely small diameter of the nanoparticle fullerenes (which act like a cage) allows them to readily pass through cell membranes and be readily absorbed into the body.

What potential benefit does this have in the pharmaceutical industry as well as medicine?




A)
The very small fullerene molecules would keep cancer cells from invading other healthy cells. As a result, it would keep cancer from spreading.




B)
The very small fullerene molecules could allow surgeons to see the insides of cells with tiny cameras as they perform complex surgery.




C)
The very small fullerene molecules could obstruct hazardous chemicals from getting into absorbed into cells.




D)
The very small fullerene molecules could easily deliver drugs directly into cells in a highly controlled manner.

What does it mean to truly love someone?​
Minchanka [31]

Truly loving someone means caring for them in the ways that they need to be cared for, with no strings attached. (That's why they call it unconditional love.)

A student obtains a mixture of the chlorides of two unknown metals, X and Z. The percent by mass of X and the percent by mass of
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The additional information that is helpful in calculating the mole percent of XCl(s) and ZCl(s) is the molar masses of Z and X

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mole percent of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Mole percent of a substance}=\frac{\text{Moles of a substance}}{\text{Total moles}}\times 100

Mass percent means that the mass of a substance is present in 100 grams of mixture

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

We require the molar masses of Z and X to calculate the mole percent of Z and X respectively

Hence, the additional information that is helpful in calculating the mole percent of XCl(s) and ZCl(s) is the molar masses of Z and X
