Explanation:

Graphite is a non metal but still can conduct electricity because of the delocalised (free) electrons in its structure. This is because each carbon atom in graphite is bonded to only three other carbon atoms and its fourth valence electron is freeIn a graphite molecule, one valence electron of each carbon atom remains free, Thus making graphite a good conductor of electricity. ... Hence there won't be flow of electrons That is the reason behind diamond are bad conductor electricity.

hope it helps you
