Question

Covalent compounds are generally poor coundoctor I electricity why?

Answer 1

$\star \bf\large\underline\blue{Aɳʂɯҽɾ}$

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.

Answer 2

Answer. Covalent compounds are poor conductors of electricity because these compounds do not have any charged particles as they are made by sharing of electrons.

Explanation: The conduction of electricity through a solution involves the the movement of charged particles/ ions. Covalent compounds do not contain ions and hence are generally bad conductors of electricity.
