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.

3 Cells use oxygen to release energy during
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Explanation: Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Approximately how much more energy is released in a 6.5 richter magnitude earthquake than in one with magnitude 5.5?
Elanso [62]
Answer: (C) 30 times

Richter scale is used to determine the magnitude of an earthquake from the arrival time of P and S waves. It determines the total amount of energy released during an earthquake.
If Richter magnitude scale measures 6.5 then it produces 30 times more energy than 1 Richter scale magnitude during an earthquake. The magnitude of an earthquake is plotted on a logarithmic scale from 1 to 9 and increases 10 folds by one magnitude. If 6.5 is the magnitude, it means it is 10 times more than 5.5 magnitude earthquake. Similarly the amount of energy is calculated as 30 folds. So 6.5 magnitude will have 30 folds more energy released than that with 5.5 magnitude earthquake.

Helpp chemistry ..........
ValentinkaMS [17]
Half-life is the time it takes for the radioactive material's mass to decrease by half.

So, half of 96 is 48
half of 48 is 24
half of 24 is 12
half of 12 is 6

96->48->24->12->6

You count how many arrows (->) there is.
Which is 4

Then you use the 12 minutes the question gave you to do:
12 divided by 4
= 3

So, one half-life (Or the time it takes for the radioactive material's mass to decrease in half) is 3 minutes

and every 3 minutes it will decrease by half.
