Answer:

Fullerene, also called buckminsterfullerene, any of a series of hollow carbon molecules that form either a closed cage (“buckyballs”) or a cylinder (carbon “nanotubes”).

Explanation:

A fullerene is an allotrope of carbon whose molecule consists of carbon atoms connected by single and double bonds to form a closed or partially closed mesh, with fused rings of five to seven atoms. The molecule may be a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, tube, or many other shapes and sizes.

Answer:

khansamueen has already provided an answer.  This is an additional note on the many structures carbon may form, called allotropes.

Explanation:  Carbon can take on many forms.  They are all based only on the carbon atom, and are thus called alloptropes.  One of these is diamond, "a" in the attached image.

What volume of water has the same mass as 9.0m3 of ethyl alcohol?
Triss [41]
This question requires the knowledge of density. 

The density of ethyl alcohol = 789 kg m⁻³
The density of water = 1000 kg m⁻³

Density = Mass / Volume 

By applying ethyl alcohol,
    789 kg m⁻³ = Mass / 0.9 m³
         Mass     = 710.1 kg
hence the mass of 0.9 m³ ethyl alcohol is 710.1 kg.

Then by applying water,
     1000 kg m⁻³ = 710.1 kg / Volume
      Volume        = 0.7101 m³
                          = 0.7 m³
hence the equal water volume is 0.7 m³
