Is graphite a clastic rock or a non clastic rock?
niether. Graphite is a mineral, not a rock.
Which non metal conducts electricity?
Carbon (graphite) will conduct electricitySilicon metallic will conduct electricity
Which mineral shows no cleavage has a hardness of 6.5 and a composition of SIO?
Graphite
Which non metal forms the lead' in a pencil?
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
Non conductors in the periodic table?
Generally, non metals are non conductors (with exceptions such as graphite, fullerene etc)
Is a non metallic conductor?
Water Graphite is an excellent electrical conductor.
Why is graphite usually non-metal?
Graphite is a form of carbon.
Is graphite a metalloid?
graphite is a form of carbon that forms in layers which is why it is able to be used in pencils, because the layers can slide off and get left on the page. Anyway carbon is a non-metal so graphite is a non-metal.
Why graphite is used in battery?
Graphite is the only non-metal exception that can conduct electricity. Hence, even though graphite is a non-metal, it is used in batteries.
Is graphite non-renewable?
No.
What is non metallic conductors?
Graphite
What is a non-metal conductor?
Graphite
Is graphite metallic or non metallic?
Graphite is not metallic it just "shines" when the light shines on it
How do you machine graphite?
Graphite is a very soft material, and is non-toxic. It is easily machined.
Is graphite a clastic rock or a non clastic rock?
niether. Graphite is a mineral, not a rock.
What is the difference between a wetting and non-wetting fluid?
A wetting fluid is capable of maintaining surface contact with a solid and its contact angles are less than 90 degrees (the angle starts from the wetted surface to the surface of the fluid). However non-wetting fluids are not willing to keep the contact area as large as wetting fluids and their contact angles are higher than 90 degrees. Imagine a droplet of mercury. As a non-wetting fluid, mercury remains still on a solid surface like a ball. It does not spread on the solid surface like water.
Which non metal is good conductor of electricity?
Carbon, when it is in the form of graphite.
