How do lead pencils work?
Lead pencils use a thin piece of graphite (not actually lead) to leave marks on paper. When you write or draw with a pencil, the friction between the graphite and the paper causes small amounts of the graphite to rub off onto the paper, creating visible marks. The hardness of the graphite determines the darkness of the mark.
