The object that will experience the least amount of gravitational attraction toward Earth is the **5-gram pencil**.
Gravitational attraction is directly proportional to an object's mass; thus, the lighter the object, the less gravitational force it will experience. In this case, the 5-gram pencil is the lightest of the objects listed.
