Assertion (A) : C(60) fullerence is an ...

Assertion (A) : `C_(60)` fullerence is an allotrope OF carbon.
Reason (R) :In `C_(60)` fullerene , five -membered rings are isolated from each other .

A

If both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the true explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true, but reason not is the true explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true, but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Correct explanation. Like graphite and diamond, `C_(60)` on buring gives `CO_(2)`.

Assertion (A) : C_(60) fullerence is an allotrope if carbon. Reason (R) :In C_(60) fullerene , five -menmebrd rings are isolated forem each other .

C_(60) , an allotrope of carbon contains :

C_(60) is aromatic allotrope of carbon containing

Assertion : Fullerenes are the only pure form of carbon. Reason : It contains twenty, five membered rings and twelve, six membered rings.

Assertion (A) : In figure given below ,AC = 5 cm Reason (R ) : sin 60^(@) = (sqrt(3))/2

C_(60) (fullerene) has the shape of a soccer ball, consider the following statements : I. Fullerene is an allotrope of carbon II. Fullerence has 5 and 6 membered rings III. All carbons in fullerene are sp^(2) hybridised. Identify the correct statements :

Following statements are given about fullerenes. Find the number of correct statements : (a) Fullerenes are made by the heating of graphite in an electric arc in the presence of inert gases such as helium or argon. (b) fullerenes are the purest form of cabon because they have smooth structure, having dangling bonds. (c) C_(8o) fullerenes have 12, five membered rings and 30-six membered rings. (d) Fullerenes have aromatic character. (e) In C_(60) fullerences six membered ring is fused with six of five but a five membered ring can only use fuse with six membered rings.

x. The hubrid state fo carbon atoms in C_(60) molecule is :
