Answer:
Carbon is the best example. Graphite i.e one of the many allotropes of carbon.
Carbon having the ability to form four bonds (covalent bonding as it has 4 electrons to either give or take) links to only three atoms of itself (only in the structure of the graphite). The fourth electron of each carbon atom remains free (unbound), which helps to generate the current.
Germanium and silicon also to a certain extent (They’re called semi conductors)
Above are the elements that are conductors of electricity and non metals.
