Answer:-

In a graphite molecule, one valence electron of each carbon atom remains free, Thus making graphite a good conductor of electricity. Whereas in diamond, they have no free mobile electron. Hence there won't be flow of electrons That is the reason behind diamond are bad conductor electricity.
