Problem- the density of diamond is 3.5g/mL and the density of graphite is 2.3g/mL. Another allotropic form of carbon is buckminsterfullerene which is composed of C60 molecules having the same symmetry as a soccer ball. In the solid state, would you expect buckminsterfullerene to be more or less dense than diamond and graphite? explain.

Please define why you think that's the right answer
