What solid is commonly used as an inactive electrode in electrochemical cells?
graphite and platinum
What element from the periodic table is used to make pencils?
Pencils are filled with Graphite, they used to be filled with led but since led is Poisonous they replaced the led with graphite.
What element is present in lead graphite?
Graphite is a form of Carbon, so its carbon in lead graphite. Notice that lead itself is a different element but the term "lead graphite" is generally used for that black substance which makes the "lead pencils". Note that there is no lead in lead pencils, its carbon, in the shape of graphite.
What element in the periodic table is used in lead with pencials?
None. Lead is an element on the periodic tablewith the Atomic No 82.
What allotrope of carbon is used to make pencils?
yea. actually graphite, allitopes element of carbon. its not really all LEAD
What element is used in the 'lead' in pencils?
carbon: in the form of graphite. Another form is diamonds
Which elements are used to make diamonds?
There is only ONE element that makes diamonds. It is Carbon. Carbon has THREE(3) allotropes viz., Diamond, Graphite, and Buckminster Fullerene. An ALLOTROPE is were an element exhibits different physical characteristics.
Is graphene going to be put on the periodic table?
Yes Graphite is a MINERAL!!!!
What is used in diamonds and pencils?
You're thinking of carbon, which Mother Nature used to form both diamonds and graphite.
What element is used in charcoal graphite and diamond?
Carbon
Why does graphite and diamonds have properties?
Everything has 'properties' used to identify the object/ item/ mineral/ material.
Is turning graphite into diamond exothermic?
Diamonds are formed from carbon, and so is graphite. The only time graphite is 'converted' to diamond is when a meteorite strikes earth. This can produce flakes of industrial diamonds that can be used by manufacturers to enhance tool usefulness, precision, and abrasive power.
Why do lead pencils contain graphite?
Because if pencil doesnot have graphite,we cannot write anything.In pencils,the black element is graphite used to write anything.

Can multiple diamonds somehow be made into just one diamond?
yes. In the modern processes of making man-made diamonds, it has been found that impurities in the output are reduced when (tiny) diamonds are used as the feedstock rather than graphite as had been used before. see diamonds in wikipedia.org
