Is a pencil an insulator or conductor of electricity?
Note: "electricity" is not conducted, only electrical current (the flow of electrons) is. Electricity is the field that covers all things electrical. The wood in a pencil is an insulator. If it is wet, it is a poorer insulator, but only a poor conductor. The carbon (lead) in the pencil is a poor conductor. The metal holding the eraser is a good conductor. The rubber eraser is a poor conductor. You really have to address the conductivity of specific substances, not items that are build from a variety of substances.
Is a lead of a pencil conductor or insulator.?
No. Lead is a realtively good conductor. The insulator is the wood on the outside of the lead.
Is a wooden pencil a conductor?
insulator bcz its a bad conductor.....
Is a pencil an insulator or a conductor?
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
Is a pencil an insulator?
The shell or carapce made of wood in pencil having a graphite refill in it is an insulator but as graphite is good conductor of electricity so overall a pencil can cunduct current in it.

Is a pencil lead is insulator or conductor?
Pencil lead is a conductor.
Is a lead of a pencil conductor or insulator.?
No. Lead is a realtively good conductor. The insulator is the wood on the outside of the lead.
Is pencil lead a conductor of electricity?
yes pencil lead is a conductor it is made of graphite(a form of carbon) which is good conductor of electricity
Is pencil a conductor?
Doubt it
Is a wooden pencil a conductor?
insulator bcz its a bad conductor.....
Is a pencil a insulator or conductor?
Wood is a fair insulator, but graphite is a reasonably good conductor, so it depends on which part of the pencil you're measuring.
Is wooden pencil a insulator or conductor?
insulator bcz its a bad conductor.....
Is a pencil an insulator of electricity?
see, the pencil's outer shield is made out of wood which is a bad conductor of electricity but the graphite core is a good conductor. thank you.
Is pencil lead a good conductor?
a good insulator
How much aluminum does it take to make ferrule on a pencil?
looser
What kind of natural resources is there in a pencil?
A pencil is made of wood, graphite (carbon), some aluminum and natural rubber.
