Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
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.
Which element is present in pencil?
The grey or black core of a pencil is made of graphite which is a form (known as an allotrope) of the element carbon. To vary the hardness of the 'lead' in the pencil the graphite may be mixed with clay or some other substances.
What element is used to make diamonds and pencil lead?
Carbon is the element used to make both diamonds and pencil lead. In diamonds, carbon atoms are arranged in a tight crystal lattice structure, making it one of the hardest naturally occurring materials. In pencil lead, carbon is mixed with clay to create a graphite material that writes on paper when applied.
What element is in both diamonds and pencil lead?
Carbon is the element found in both diamonds and pencil lead. In diamonds, carbon atoms are arranged in a crystal lattice structure, making it a prized and valuable gemstone. In pencil lead, carbon is in the form of graphite, which is a softer allotrope of carbon used for writing and drawing.
Is pencil lead a compound a mixture or an element?
Pencil lead is a mixture of graphite (or other colored pigment) and a binder (e.g. clay, wax, plastic, grease).
Is lead from a lead pencil the same as the element?
yes yes it is
What is made out of lead?
Lead is an element, it is not made of anything but lead. But if you are talking about pencil lead then pencil lead is made of graphite.
Pencil lead is actually a form of what element?
carbon.
What element is diamond and your pencil lead are made of this?
carbon
What element is diamond and pencil lead made of?
Carbon
What are examples of water metal and pencil lead?
Water is a compound. A pure metal is an element. Graphite (a pencil lead) is the element carbon. These are all examples of a pure substance.
Is pencil a heterogenous or homogenous?
pencil is hetrogenous because it consists of wood and lead, but if they tell that lead, that will be an element, which symbol is pb.
What element is a diamond and pencil lead made out of?
Both diamonds and pencil lead are made out of the element carbon. The difference lies in their structures: diamonds have a crystal lattice structure, while pencil lead is made up of layers of graphite.
Which element is a diamond and your pencil lead graphite made of?
hydrogen
Is the element lead used mainly production of pencils?
pencil
What is the chemical element of lead?
The chemical symbol for lead (element) is Pb. THe formula is Pb2 Pencil lead however, is a mix of graphite and clay.
Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
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.
