Best answer
  • In graphite, each carbon is bonded to three other carbon atoms in such a way that a hexagonal layered structure is formed. 
  • Due to this structure, graphite has free electrons available. 
  • These free electrons move continuously within the entire layer. 
  • Hence, graphite is a good conductor of electricity.
