Question

uses of graphite.in points

Answer 1

The important uses of graphite are as follows.
1. The major use of graphite is in  making lead pencils of different hardness,  by mixing it with different  proportions of clay. The weakly held layers of  carbon atoms in graphite  easily slide over each other and are left behind on  paper as black  marks.
2. Due to its slippery nature, graphite is used as a dry lubricant in machine  parts.
3. Being resistant to chemicals and  having a high melting point and also  because it is a good conductor of  heat, graphite is used to make crucibles.
4. The presence of free electrons makes graphite a good conductor of  electricity and it is used to make electrodes.
5. Graphite has the ability to absorb  fast-moving neutrons, thus, it is used  in nuclear reactors to control  the speed of the nuclear fission reaction.
