Allotropes are different structural modifications of an element, that is, each of two or more different physical forms in which an element can exist.

Carbon is capable of forming many allotropes due to its valency. Well-known forms of carbon include charcoal, diamond, graphite, buckminsterfullerene and graphene.

Hence, Ethylene is not an allotrope of Carbon.

Microscopes are of three types. They are :

1) Optical microscopes

2) Electron microscopes

Expressing 3/8 as a decimal fraction:

We can convert 3/8 into a decimal fraction by just dividing 3 by 8 or making 3 into 8 parts.

Then, it is 3/8 = 0.375 as a decimal fraction.

Other Method::

3/8 as a Decimal :

In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple.

Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125

=> (3 x 125)/(8 x 125) = 375/1000 = 0.375.

The error lies in part (1). 

As the phrase 'as much as' needs to be replaced with 'much as I'. This is because we use 'as much as' for comparing two qualities or things. But here in the given sentence a contrast is given in the latter part of the sentence. So we need a conjunction like 'even though' 'although' etc...

'Much as I' also serves the same purpose.
