उत्तर
Graphite
Explanation:
Pencil lead is formed of graphite. Graphite is an allotropic form of carbon in which each carbon atom is joined to three others, forming layers:
Weak van der Waals forces hold these layers together, allowing them to slide over one another, making graphite flexible and slippery.
As a result, graphite is employed as a pencil lead.'
Layers of graphite rub off as the pencil glides across the paper, leaving black imprints on the surface.
