Question

why are most carbon compounds poor conductors of electricity ​

Answer 1

Answer:

We All Know that Carbon Forms Covalent Bonds.

■CovalentBond

[ Covalent Bond is a process in which pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms. ]

⇝ As All Electrons are Used in Making Covalent Bonds. So there are no Free Electrons.

⇝ Carbon doesn’t have free or valence electrons that can be easily seperated from its nucleus.

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon compounds are poor conductors of electricity as they form covalent bonds, so it does not give rise to free electrons ( all electrons are used in making the covalent bond) and as a carbon compound does not dissociate itself into ions, therefore carbon compounds are poor conductors of electricity.
