Yes, graphite reacts with oxygen but not at room temperature. The temperature has to be quite high ;)

What is the chemical reactivity of graphite?
Graphite has an extremely low reactivity. Graphite can react with oxygen and sulfuric acid.
How does diamond react with air?
Diamond is inert and doesn't react with oxygen.
What do substances react with in the air when they are burning?
If the substance is burning in air then the gas is Oxygen (O2) which makes up about 20% of the Earth's air.
What is a chemical property ability to condense from a gas to a liquid ability to react with oxygen in the air or ability to change directly from a gas to a liquid?
Ability to react with oxygen in the air is a chemical property.
What happens when transition metals react with the air?
Metals react with air in a form called oxidizing. This is caused because the oxygen molecules are reacting with the surface of the metal.
What is the chemical reactivity of graphite?
Graphite has an extremely low reactivity. Graphite can react with oxygen and sulfuric acid.
Does gallium react with oxygen?
of course not gallium does not react with oxygen you retards cuz if it did then something would happen if you would it in the air cuz oxygen is in the air
Which gas in air does sulfur react with?
oxygen
Does copernicium react with air?
Not known today, but is supposed that copernicium can react with oxygen.
Does oxygen react to light acid air or water?
Oxygen does not react with air or water. Nothing actually "reacts" with light as it is not a substance. It can induce a reaction in some substance, but not oxygen. Oxygen will, however react with some acids mostly organic ones, at high temperatures.
What does magnesium react with when burnt?
Oxygen in the air (O2)
What gas present in the air can react with metals?
Oxygen
When metals react with the oxygen in air what it is called?
oxidation
What component of air do iron and sodium react with?
Oxygen
What element does iron react with in damp air?
Iron reacts with oxygen in air to for rust.
How does diamond react with air?
Diamond is inert and doesn't react with oxygen.
What is the reaction of graphite and water?
Nothing, It will sink but it won't react with water at room temperature. You have to heat graphite to something like 800 degrees Celsius to react with water at that temperature it will react with steam to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas.
