Diamond and graphite both have single bonds between carbon atoms. Buckminsterfullerene has single and double bonds, forming a unique structure of pentagons and hexagons.
The bond angles of buckminsterfullerene are approximately 109.5 degrees between each carbon atom. This angle is consistent with the tetrahedral geometry around each carbon atom in the structure of buckminsterfullerene.
Scientists know that there are 60 carbons in buckminsterfullerene because the molecule's structure is a perfect sphere composed of 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons. Each carbon atom in buckminsterfullerene forms three bonds, creating a cage-like structure with 60 carbon atoms.
Diamond, graphite, and Buckminsterfullerene are all forms of carbon. Diamond and graphite are allotropes of carbon with different crystal structures—diamond has a rigid, three-dimensional lattice structure, while graphite has layers of carbon atoms arranged in sheets. Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule consisting of carbon atoms arranged in a hollow sphere shape. Diamond is the hardest natural material, graphite is a good conductor of electricity due to its free electrons, and Buckminsterfullerene has unique cage-like properties with potential applications in nanotechnology.
no, he is the guy who discovered the fullerene (C60). It was named after him. He like made the model for it. But Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, and Harold Kroto discovered it with their new magnifying glass they made on accident. And then they found this new element. They are also know as buckytubes and buckyballs.

Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule composed of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure. The diameter of a buckminsterfullerene molecule is about 0.7 nanometers.
Carbon is unique because it can form four bonds, allowing it to act as the backbone for many molecules, and also because of the many structures it can form (rings, linear chains, double-bonded chains, triple-bonded chains, flat sheets, and buckminsterfullerene.
Diamond, graphite, and buckminsterfullerene are made of pure carbon and are insoluble in water.
Diamond, coal, graphite, coke and buckminsterfullerene are composed primarily of carbon and are insoluble in water.
