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
Why can pencil lead can be used to make a light bulb?
A "pencil lead" is a mixture of the graphite allotrope of carbon mixed with clay and baked hard. While a pencil lead will conduct electricity, it can not be used to make a light bulb.
What is the percentage of lead in lead pencil?
Lead pencils actually contain graphite, not lead. The "lead" in a pencil is a mix of graphite and clay.
What element in the periodic table is used in lead with pencials?
None. Lead is an element on the periodic tablewith the Atomic No 82.
What element element is in the carbon family often mistaken for the end of your pencil?
Pencils use Graphite, not lead. Graphite is made of carbon, and no one mistakes a pencil of having carbon. They may mistake it of having lead, in which it is corrected that pencils no longer use lead-but instead use Graphite, which is made of carbon. It is not often mistaken that a pencil is made of carbon. Because it is made of carbon, so how you can make a mistake by thinking the pencil is made of graphite? Its true, not a mistake. This riddle is probably backwards? Or its just a trick question, I dont even know.
Which element is present in pencil?
The grey or black core of a pencil is made of graphite which is a form (known as an allotrope) of the element carbon. To vary the hardness of the 'lead' in the pencil the graphite may be mixed with clay or some other substances.
What elements does lead contain?
Pencil lead contains the element carbon in the form (allotrope) of graphite. The powdered graphite is mixed with a clay binder.Pencil lead has never contained any lead.
Is pencil lead element or a compound or a mixture?
Pencil lead is a mixture of graphite (or other colored pigment) and a binder (e.g. clay, wax, plastic, grease).
What element is in both diamonds and pencil lead?
Carbon is the element found in both diamonds and pencil lead. In diamonds, carbon atoms are arranged in a crystal lattice structure, making it a prized and valuable gemstone. In pencil lead, carbon is in the form of graphite, which is a softer allotrope of carbon used for writing and drawing.
Is lead an allotrope of carbon?
NO! Lead is a chemical element itself, with no particular relation to carbon, which is another chemical element. The common allotropes of carbon are diamond and graphite. -------- Lead is the common name for the substance in a 'lead' pencil which does indeed contain an allotrope of carbon known as graphite.

What element is diamond and your pencil led are made of?
Yes, carbon.supplement. when an element exists in two or more forms, these forms are known as an allotrope. Carbon has three allotropes, graphite, diamond, and ordinary carbon.
Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Pencil lead is actually not lead (Pb) at all, but it is graphite. And graphite is simply carbons atoms. So, no, it is NOT a compound mixture.
What element in the periodic table is used in lead with pencials?
None. Lead is an element on the periodic tablewith the Atomic No 82.
