Observe the following statements regarding \(\mathrm{C}_{60}\).
i. All carbons are \(s p^2\)-hybridised.
ii. It contains 12 rings of five carbons each and 20 rings of six carbons each.
iii. It is a non-aromatic compound.
iv. It is pure form of carbon.
v. \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C}\) bond lengths in it are 143.5 and \(138.3 \mathrm{pm}\).
vi. It is prepared by heating graphite in an electric arc in the presence of oxygen.
The correct statements are
- A i, ii, iii, iv, v
- B i, ii, iv, v only
- C i, ii, iv, vi only
- D i, ii, iii only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) i, ii, iv, v only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In \(\mathrm{C}_{60}\), all carbon atoms are \(s p^2\)-hybridised. It contains 12 rings of five carbon each and 20 rings of six carbon each. It is anti-aromatic with spherically surrounded by \(\pi\)-electrons. It is a pure form of carbon. \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C}\) bond length…
