How does the structure of graphite account for the design of graphite electrodes?
The structure of graphite accounts for the design of graphite electrodes in the sense that the tight structural composition of graphite makes it easy for them to be arranged in electrodes.
Is galena used in pencils?
No, we don't use galena is pencils. Galena is the primary ore of the metal lead, and this mineral, PbS, is recovered for that purpose. We also often recover silver as a byproduct of lead processing. It is graphite that is used in pencils, and the mineral graphite is an allotrope of carbon.
What is the chemical reactivity of graphite?
Graphite has an extremely low reactivity. Graphite can react with oxygen and sulfuric acid.
What can be made of graphite?
Graphite is pure carbon. A diamond is also pure carbon in a very specific crystal. Yet diamonds do not conduct electricity and graphite does. Graphite can form in plate like arrays of hexagonal crystals and in an amorphous, powdery form.
Is graphite an element or compound or mixture?
Graphite is an element. It is a form of carbon.
What is a material like grease which reduces friction?
Graphite
What are some ways to decrease friction?
oil, graphite, grease
Under which circumstances will graphite be used as a lubricant instead of grease Explain?
There are a few reasons why graphite might be used as a lubricant instead of grease. One reason is that graphite can withstand higher temperatures than most greases, so it can be used in applications where the temperature is too high for grease. Another reason is that graphite has low friction, so it can be used to reduce wear and tear on moving parts. Finally, graphite is chemically inert, so it won't react with other materials it comes into contact with.
What can be used to reduce friction?
Lubricant (Liquids, oils, grease, fats, water, graphite...)

What part of a bicycle is better to lubricate with powdered graphite?
The bicycle lock would be a good place to use graphite ***** Graphite grease is usually used on the chain of a bicycle and on the ballbearing-races, as found in the wheels, pedals and bottom bracket, etc.
How can you clean graphite grease from curtains?
To clean graphite grease from curtains, gently rub with a soft eraser to remove excess graphite. Spray on a dry-cleaning solution and apply a dry spotter. Moisten a dry pad with the dry spotter and rub into the dry spotter on the stain. Apply dry spotter to a clean pad and lay on the stain for at least 30-minutes. Spray with the dry-cleaning solvent again and allow to air dry.
What is the purpose of grease?
I also need to know what its purpose is...... i cant find proper information on internet
Where can grafite be bought online?
The mineral graphite can be purchased online at many chemical retailers at competitive prices. Graphite for the purpose of lubrication can be purchased from specialty retailers such as McMaster-Carr. Graphite for pencils can be purchased from office supply stores.

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).
