A #2 pencil will usually have the number 2 on the barrel, near the eraser end.
A pencil works by leaving a trail of graphite on paper as it is dragged across the surface. The graphite in the pencil is soft and leaves a mark when pressure is applied, allowing for writing or drawing.
The eraser on a pencil is typically made of a synthetic rubber compound called styrene-butadiene. This material is designed to be soft and pliable, allowing it to effectively remove pencil marks without damaging the paper.
The lead in a pencil is actually made of graphite, not lead. Graphite is a non-toxic material that is soft and easily erasable, making it ideal for writing and drawing.
The volume of a typical pencil is approximately 2 cubic centimeters.
It is non metallic. The pencil 'lead' is graphite which is a common mineral, a soft carbon
Usually on most pencils it says it on the case or on the side of the pencil by the eraser it says PENCIL #2 or #2.Hope i helped!:)
the graphite in the pencil is soft, when you write/draw it rubs off on to the paper. (Graphite is a soft metal)
Pencil tool is similar with Brush with some basic difference: you can not paint with soft stroke with Pencil Tool.
The softer the pencil is the thicker and darker a line it will leave
To make it harder. Pure graphite would be too soft for use as a writing pencil.
The main body of a pencil is made from soft wood, the 'lead' is made from graphite. The lead can come in many different sizes depending on the pencil holding it.
No, he just used graphite (a naturally occuring drawing medium). The figure of the prince is drawn with a soft pencil and the background flowers with a hard pencil. Soft pencil makes an image darker, while a hard pencil makes an image lighter or silver.
It is graphite, a soft crystalline carbon.
it looks like a pencil
Because you skin is far too soft, a pencil lead needs a rougher surface to leave a mark.

The pencil doe not write. It is the person that picks up the pencil that writes with the pencil. when the point of the pencil is put to a surface ( IE. a sheet of paper) to be written on the graphite tip being soft is worn down leaving a line on the surface of the paper.
