Question

What's the pencil's lead made of?

Answer 1

graphite because schools were scared to use lead because kids like to chew on pencil but lead is very toxic so they use graphite which is non toxic but works just as good.

hope this helped please let me know if it did

Answer 2

Here's a myth buster: There is no lead in pencils. Rather, the core is made up of a non-toxic mineral called graphite. The common name “pencil lead” is due to an historic association with the stylus made of lead in ancient Roman times.
