Pencils with H are harder, pencils with B are softer. The higher the number with the H, the harder the lead (usually light, very precise line). Pencils with B are softer, and the higher the number, the softer the lead (very dark, blurs easily).
That would depend if the pencil were an H or a B. Artist pencils are identified with a number and a letter. H is for hard. A 6H pencil would be harder than a 4H pencil. B is for soft. A 6B pencil would be softer than a 4B pencil.
on normal pencils its HB which stands for hard black and the 'b' on other pencils stands for black and the higher the number is on the pencil the less amount of clay is in the pencil which means that pencil mark is a darker and softer
H or hb is used for lettering in ed
Use a B, 2B, or darker grade of pencil for your shading. H and 2h pencils will give you less depth.
On the periodic table of elements, the symbol "H" stands for Hydrogen.
H indicates the Hardness of the lead inside a pencil
In pencils, "F" stands for "fine." It indicates the hardness of the pencil lead, with an "F" pencil falling in the middle of the hardness scale between "HB" and "H." A "F" pencil produces lines that are somewhat fine and have a moderate level of darkness.
An HB pencil is just a No. 2 Pencil HB stands for Hard Black
No on a pencil stands for Number. It is a measure of hardness, similar to the HB scale.
H stands for hardness and B stands for blackness this is how a pencil scale goes: 9H 8H 7H 6H 5H 4H 3H 2H 1H H HB B 1B 2B 3B 4B 5B 6B 7B 8B 9B9H is very fine hard and light but 9B is thick black and very soft (more like charcoal)
The grade of pencil that is easiest to erase is typically a harder pencil, such as an H or F grade.
The H stands for hydrogen and the O stands for oxygen
That would depend if the pencil were an H or a B. Artist pencils are identified with a number and a letter. H is for hard. A 6H pencil would be harder than a 4H pencil. B is for soft. A 6B pencil would be softer than a 4B pencil.
If you mean what HB stands for, it's an indicator for the hardness (H) or softness (B) of the graphite and clay used. However, the B is for blackness so HB is like average/medium grade so the full form would be Hard Black, Hard and Black, or Hard Blackness. If you check out pencils like 3H, you'll notice that the tone when writing or drawing is light compared to an HB. Conversely, a 3B pencil will give you a darker tone.
The H in H-Bomb stands for Hydrogen.
H in chemistry stands for hydrogen. In Physics is stands for Planck's Constant In measurement it stands for hecto~ ( prefix meaning 100)
H stands for Hydrogen.N stands for Nitrogen.
