In one molecule of graphite, each carbon atom is covalently bonded to three other carbon atoms.
Graphite has a giant structure. It also has a layer structure. In graphite, the carbon atoms join together to form hexagonal rings which form each layer. There are millions of layers of carbon atoms in a crystal of graphite. These layers are held together by weak Van der Waal's force.

in graphite , 1 carbon atom is directly connected to 3 other carbon atoms
the covalent bond between 2 carbon atom horizontally is strong,
but vertically, the vanderwaal's force is strong
in graphite,
since each c atom is connected to only 3 carbon atoms,
another electron is free and is mobile
