Yes, lead is a metal that is usually found in pencils, hence the name "Lead, pencil."
The above statement is completely and utterly wrong, there has never and still is no lead at all in pencils, that's graphite.
Also lead is a poor metal or malleable metal.
Actually, pencils used to use lead, but they switched to graphite because people would chew on their pencils and give themselves lead poisoning.
No, traditional pens do not have lead in them. The "lead" in pencils actually refers to graphite, not the metal lead. Pens typically use ink, which is a liquid or gel substance.
Lead is considered a Heavy Metal and by volume it weighs more when compared to most other metals. it is 82nd on the periodic table and as the periodic table is arranged according to the mass of the elements lead falls on the heavy side, but there are 104 known elements. that leaves 22 elements that have more mass than lead.
Yes, steel is lighter than lead. Steel is a metal alloy made primarily of iron and carbon, whereas lead is a dense metal. This difference in composition leads to steel being less dense and therefore lighter than lead.
Lead is a metal and is considered a good conductor of electricity. It is not a semiconductor or insulator.
Yes, pencils typically have a thin metal piece called a ferrule that holds the eraser in place. Additionally, some mechanical pencils have a metal tip that dispenses the lead as it is used.
Lead is a metal.
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.
Lead metal
Yes, lead is a metal.
Lead is a soft ductile metal.
Lead is a soft ductile metal.
Lead oxide is not a metal. Why?Lead is metal by itself, lead oxide is metal oxide, meaning it is a chemical compound that contains at least one atom of oxygen (thus oxide) and one other element (being a metal oxide, that one other element has to be metal, in this case lead).
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
No, lead is a metal and metal is not bio degradable.
Lead is a metal.
NO!!! It is a white solid compound. Car batterty terminals may turn white, this is lead sulphate. It comes from a combination of lead from the lead plates in the battery and sulphuric acid, the battery liquid.
No, lead is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, while lead is a non-ferrous metal.
