Answer 1

Graphite is a form of carbon and the non-metal so also it is used to make electric cells because it is all about the chemical bondage and combination of hydrocarbon inside the graphite.

Answer 2

Answer:

Graphite is a non metal, which is a physical form ( allotropic form) of carbon element. It is the only non metal that can conduct electricity ( that is allow the electric current to pass through it) because large amount of electron delocalization takes place within the carbon layers, which are present in the graphite.
