Some paper can be harder than some rubber. There are too many types of both paper and rubber to make a generalisation.

No, paper is typically softer than rubber. Rubber is a solid material known for its flexibility and elasticity, while paper is a lightweight material made from compressed fibers that is more brittle and easier to tear.

Why are rubbers made of rubber and can rub out and rubber balls cannot?

Rubber as a compound can be formulated in many ways. In erasers it is made to be stickier to graphite particles from lead pencils than paper so the graphite preferentially sticks to the eraser. The rubber is also soft so the paper abrades it and the graphite containing surface os worn away for disposal. The result is clean paper and rubber/graphite dust. Some very soft erasers for art work are very soft so that no danmage to the paper happens, These can retain the graphite and eventually get quite dirty and have to be discarded as they leave maks rather than remove them. Some erasers contain a bit of abrasive and remove the top layer of the paper as well making them useful for removing inks that penetrate the paper surface. A rubber ball is generally made from a harder and tougher rubber without the stickiness or softness of the eraser. Most modern "rubber" balls are made of chemical polymers which are not really rubber and have to affinity for graphite.

Is plastic harder than rubber?

Yes! Depends which plastic and which rubber you are talking about. It really is quite alarming how people use terms like "Plastic" and "rubber" when there are HUGE numbers of massively different products falling under each category. You wouldn't say "Come round for dinner tonight, we're having 'food' followed by 'food' and then some 'food' for dessert" would you??
