Chemistry 13.3

The Nature of Solids In 1985, scientists discovered a new form of carbon. They called this form of carbon buckminsterfullerene, or buckyball for short. You will learn how the arrangement of particles in solids determines some general properties of solids. In 1985, scientists discovered a new form of carbon.
