Why graphite conduct electricity??????​

Answer»

Graphite can conduct electricity because of the delocalised (free) electrons in its structure. These arise because each CARBON atom is only BONDED to 3 other carbon ATOMS. ... However, in DIAMOND, all 4 outer electrons on each carbon atom are used in covalent bonding, so there are no delocalised electrons.

Hope it helps
