2. Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. If you think a statement is false, rewrite it to make it true. (a) If buckyballs can be woven into fabric, they could be used to create bullet- and knife-proof clothing. (b) Molecular assemblers are nanomachines which may be used to assemble atoms into designer molecules that are nearly impossible to be synthesized by ordinary chemical reactions.
