Pencil lead is graphite. No lead is actually in pencils.

If it is stabbed through your eye, it will kill you instantly.

If you heat it to 4200 celcius, it will turn to carbon vapor, which when cooled, will become carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide, killing you In a few minutes.

If shot at a micron/sec under the speed of light, it will destroy your planet.

If you breath gigatonic amounts of it, you might get lung cancer in a few decades.

If you eat it, it will not digest, but that is it.

The predecessor of the graphite pencil especially popular during the Renaissance is who?

The predecessor of the graphite pencil that gained popularity during the Renaissance is the wooden stylus or the lead pencil, which used a core of solid lead or a mixture of graphite and clay. However, the modern graphite pencil as we know it was developed later, with the first true graphite pencil being created in the late 16th century when a large deposit of graphite was discovered in Borrowdale, England. This led to the production of pencils with a wooden casing that made them more practical for writing and drawing.


What kind of rock is made into pencil led?

Pencil lead is made from a mixture of graphite and clay. Graphite is a form of carbon that is mined from metamorphic rocks, specifically those that have undergone high pressure and temperature conditions. The clay helps to bind the graphite particles together and can also influence the hardness of the pencil. When combined and fired, this mixture creates the solid core used in pencils.


How much time takes uranium decays into led?

It takes billions of years for uranium to decay into lead. Uranium-238, the most common isotope of uranium, has a half-life of about 4.5 billion years, meaning it takes that long for half of a sample of uranium-238 to decay into lead-206.


What are led pencils made of?

LED pencils are not a common term. However, traditional pencils are typically made of a wooden barrel, graphite (a form of carbon), clay, and a binder. The quality and composition of these materials can vary based on the specific brand and type of pencil.

If it is real led (which most likely not) it is VERY poisonous and can even kill the dog.
