The "number 2" designation refers to the "hardness" of the lead. The higher the number, the "harder" The "7mm" designation refers to the "thickness" of the lead. The higher the number, the thicker. They are not the same pencil.

The 2 is the number of the lead in the pencil.
I think it is a Ticonderoga.
No, it is not recommended to sharpen a pencil with paper still attached to it as it may damage the pencil sharpener and prevent the pencil from being sharpened properly. It is best to remove any paper or plastic wrapping before sharpening a pencil.
It is still a pencil, but you can't erase the coloring completely if it's a normal color pencil.
The length of a pencil is best measured in centimeters
Usually on most pencils it says it on the case or on the side of the pencil by the eraser it says PENCIL #2 or #2.Hope i helped!:)
the mechanical pencil will write better because it has a skinnier lead, so the pencil doesn't go flat if you write too much on one side. the lead also still graphite, but has special substances in it to help you write better. Still, if your pencil is certified HB#2, it can be used on Scantron Genuine Forms and State tests.

It's softer. #1 softest, #2 slightly harder, #3 harder than #2, etc.Softer.a #1 pencil is softer than a#2 pencil
Hold your pencil with a relaxed grip, allowing your fingers to move freely. Position the pencil between your index and middle fingers, and support it with your thumb. Find a grip that feels comfortable and allows you to write smoothly without strain. Practice holding your pencil in different ways to find what works best for you.
