No, lead is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, while lead is a non-ferrous metal.
A non-ferrous metal is any metal that does not contain, in part or in whole, any iron. This can generally be tested with a magnet as only ferrous metals are magnetic.The term comes from the latin for the iron, which is ferrus. That is also the root for the chemical symbol of iron, Fe.
Non-ferrous materials are metals or alloys that do not contain significant amounts of iron. Examples include aluminum, copper, gold, and lead. These materials are often prized for their light weight, resistance to corrosion, and electrical conductivity.
Lead is a soft ductile metal.
iron nickel and colbolt
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
A non-ferrous metal is a metal which doesn't contain carbon. Mild steel does contain carbon. So mild steel is a ferous metal. Mild steel is NOT a non ferous metal
Metal, non ferous.
Copper is a non-ferous metal.
It can oxidize, but it is not normally referred to as 'rusting'.
A *ferrous* metal is a good conductor, but not as good as copper, silver or aluminum.
Use a magnet IF it sticks its ferrous metal if it does NOT stick it is non ferous metal
Ferrous metals contain iron as a primary component, while non-ferrous metals do not have iron as a primary component. Ferrous metals are more prone to rust and corrosion compared to non-ferrous metals. Non-ferrous metals are typically lighter, have higher conductivity, and are more resistant to rust and corrosion.

Lead is a poor metal and (or) a metalloid: it has some amphoteric properties as well, like bismuth or arsenic. It has some fine metallic properties though.
Yes, lead is a metal.
