Why does graphite stick to paper? How does it happen?
Can you tell me why graphite sticks to paper? How does it happen?
Sure, I believe it's due to the properties of both graphite and paper. The surface of paper is rough and porous, which allows the graphite to adhere to it. The graphite itself is made up of layers of carbon atoms which create a weak Van der Waals force with the paper, allowing it to stick. Do you have any other questions on this topic?
