Answers

Answered by sakshisuparess

Answer:

graphite is a good conductor

Explanation:

It consists of only carbon atoms. In graphite each carbon atom is covalently bonded to three other carbon atoms. This arrangement makes layers of hexagonal rings that can slip past one another. In graphite each carbon atom has a free electron in its outermost energy shell. This free electron is responsible for conductivity of electricity through graphite.

Answered by suman6511

Answer:

Graphite which is an allotrope of carbon is a good conductor of heat because of the presence of delocalised electrons in graphite as it is a lubricant for machine parts.
