both are attracted to each other from the metals inside of them
Graphite is not a metal! It is a crystalline form of carbon in single atom thick sheets.
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
Tt depends on the metal which is the cathode and which is the anode. However, in most cases, graphite is the cathode and the metal is the anode. the strictly correct answer is that BOTH the metal and the graphite rod are electrodes. You must have two electrodes minimum to create a cell.
nonmetal, because it is a form of carbon and carbon is a nonmetal.
A wood hockey stick has less whip effect than a graphite stick and will break easier at the heel. A choice between the two is made based on a personal like or dislike by a player. Of course the price may also ome into the choice , as a graphite stick will cost as much as 4 times that of a wood stick.
Graphite is not a metal.

Graphite is a form of carbon.
Graphite is not a metal! It is a crystalline form of carbon in single atom thick sheets.
Graphite is the only non-metal exception that can conduct electricity. Hence, even though graphite is a non-metal, it is used in batteries.
graphite is a form of carbon that forms in layers which is why it is able to be used in pencils, because the layers can slide off and get left on the page. Anyway carbon is a non-metal so graphite is a non-metal.

Graphite
Carbon, when it is in the form of graphite.
Graphite is the material commonly used in pencils, not metal. The graphite is mixed with clay to create the core of the pencil, which is then encased in wood.
