Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Pencil lead is actually not lead (Pb) at all, but it is graphite. And graphite is simply carbons atoms. So, no, it is NOT a compound mixture.
Is a pencil poison?
No, a pencil is not poisonous. However, ingesting pencil lead or graphite can lead to an intestinal blockage or irritation.
Which is thicker a 5mm or 7mm pencil lead?
A 7mm pencil lead is thicker than a 5mm pencil lead. The diameter of the lead determines its thickness, so the lead with a larger diameter will be thicker.
What mineral make the lead in a pencil?
Graphite is the mineral that is used to make the lead in a pencil. Despite its name, pencil "lead" is actually composed of graphite mixed with clay.
What is the streak color of pencil lead?
The streak color of pencil lead is typically a shade of grey.
Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Pencil lead is actually not lead (Pb) at all, but it is graphite. And graphite is simply carbons atoms. So, no, it is NOT a compound mixture.
What is the percentage of lead in the lead pencil you are using?
A typical lead pencil does not actually contain lead. The "lead" in a pencil is made of graphite, which is a crystalline form of carbon. Therefore, there is 0% lead in a lead pencil.
Is pencil lead is Pb free?
Yes, pencil "lead" is not actually lead metal but graphite, which is a form of carbon. So, pencil lead is Pb (lead) free.
Is pencil lead solution?
Pencil lead is a compound
Is a pencil a homogeneous solution?
It's not a 'solution' but if you consider it that way then the answer is no. Homogeneous means 'the same throughout'
Which has the most lead aluminum or pencil lead?
Pencil lead isn't really lead, it is graphite, a form of carbon. Pencil lead doesn't have any lead in it whatsoever.
Is a pencil poison?
No, a pencil is not poisonous. However, ingesting pencil lead or graphite can lead to an intestinal blockage or irritation.
How do they get lead out of pencil?
we get lead of pencil from the mixture of clay and graphite
Is a pencil lead is insulator or conductor?
Pencil lead is a conductor.
Which is thicker a 7mm or 9mm pencil lead?
A 9mm pencil lead is thicker than a 7mm pencil lead.
What is lead of a pencil?
Pencil lead is made of graphite and clay. Newer recipes for pencil lead use waxy polymers to bind the graphite to produce a lead that does not snap when the pencil is flexed.
Is it called a lead pen or a lead pencil?
It is called a lead pencil. Despite the name, the "lead" in pencils is actually made of graphite, not lead. Lead pens are typically mechanical pencils that use a lead refill.
