Question

(a) Why are most carbon compounds poor conductors of electricity?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbon compounds are poor electrical conductors because they form covalent bonds, and they do not give rise to free electrons because all electrons are used to create the covalent bond. Also carbon compound does not dissociate itself into ions, so carbon compounds are poor electrical conductors.

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon compounds are covalent in nature. Covalent compounds do not dissociate into ions in aqueous solution and also it does not have free electrons. Since there is no flow of charge, it is a poor conductor of electricity.
