Yes it is a compound. I am a Science teacher at Brownwell High School.
Heterogeneous
Since it is made up of more than 2 different parts, I would say it is a heterogeneous mixture.

no they are compound mixture
A pencil is a mixture because it does not chemically bond, which needs to happen for it to be a compound. An element is something that is pure so a pencil cannot be an element.

Heterogeneous
Pencil lead is a mixture of graphite (or other colored pigment) and a binder (e.g. clay, wax, plastic, grease).
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.
Carbon is an element and sugar is a compound.

Pencil is not a compound word. If you separated it you would get pen/cil. Cil is not a word, So pencil is not a compound word.
