What else can I help you with?
What allotrope of carbon is used to make pencils?
yea. actually graphite, allitopes element of carbon. its not really all LEAD
What mineral is soft enough to leave a streak on paper?
The mineral graphite is soft enough to leave a mark on paper. We use graphite, which is a form of carbon, as pencil lead. And it works pretty darn well at leaving marks on paper.
What can exist in more than one form in the same state iron neon iodine or carbon?
Carbon: diamond, graphite, glassy graphite, graphene, fullerene etc.
Graphite is an allotrope of what element?
Diamond, graphite and carbon black are the most common allotropes of CARBON
Graphite in a pencil lead is made up of the element?
Graphite in pencil lead is made up of the element carbon. In its crystalline form, carbon atoms are arranged in layers, allowing them to slide over each other easily, which is why graphite is used for writing. The softness of graphite also makes it suitable for producing marks on paper.

What is a carbon made in a pencil?
Pencils are made by graphite. It is a form of carbon. Graphite has sp2 hybridized carbon atoms.
What matter is carbon graphite?
pure carbon. its the same as diamond
What are some of uses of graphite?
carbon and graphite are one in the same, graphite is a form of carbon a use for graphite is the lead in your pencil (it's not actually lead, it's graphite) and it is also a good lubricant ;)

A diamond and your pencil lead graphite are made of this same element?
graphite in a pencil and diamond are from carbon .both are the allotrope of carbon
Do diamond and graphite form the same product when burnt?
No, diamond and graphite do not form the same product when burnt. Diamond will convert into carbon dioxide gas, while graphite will also convert into carbon dioxide gas.
Are carbon and graphite same materialwhy?
Carbon fibers are made almost entirely of graphite. Carbon fiber composite, sometimes referred to as "carbon fiber", is made of carbon fibers and a matrix material, which is usually a plastic such as epoxy.
What is the mineral used in pencils?
graphite
How are diamond and graphite made the same?
They are not made the same- but they come from the same element- carbon. However, carbon can take different crystal shapes. One of those is graphite, a very different one is diamond.
Is graphite a silicate or carbon?
Graphite is carbon.
Are carbon and graphite same material?
Yes. Graphite is an allotrope of carbon. Allotropes are composed of the same element but the arrangement differs. Diamond and fullerenes are also allotropes of carbon. Allotropes of carbon differ in the arrangement of the carbon atoms. The structure of graphite enables it to be used in pencils (the "lead") and as a lubricant, but the arrangement of carbon in diamond makes it the hardest substance known on the earth.
