Answer:
Since each carbon atom has four bonding electrons, one electron remains unbonded in each carbon atom. These electrons form a sea of delocalised electrons similar to that found in a metal. These can move throughout the fullerene, allowing conduction of electricity.Mar 14, 2016

Answer:
To reiterate Ivan's comment fullerene is a bad conductor because that's what the measured properties produce as a result. The mechanism that makes it a bad conductor is that it has shorter range continuity than graphite. In graphite the carbon is made of sheets that can be as long as the sample
