CNTs are capped on both ends with which carbon nanostructure? A)graphite B)diamond C)c₆₀ D)benzene

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are capped on both ends with a carbon nanostructure that resembles a buckminsterfullerene, which is represented by the formula C60. This structure is a spherical arrangement of carbon atoms, similar to a soccer ball, and does not directly correspond to graphite, diamond, or benzene. The notation "c₆₀" is a coded representation, but the correct answer is related to the fullerene structure, which is implied here.
