Question

Graphite is a good conductor of electricity because if
contains:
(a) Mobile electrons
(b) Bonded electrons
(c) Strong C = C bonds
(d) Strong C - C bonds​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Mobile electrons

Explanation:

Graphite is a good conductor of electricity because it's each carbon atom each connected to another three carbon atoms by single bond due to which one carbon atom is left for bonding. This free carbon atom acts as a free electron and helps in conduction of electricity.

On the other hand diamond is bad conductor of electricity.

Graphite and diamond are the compounds of carbon.
