Solution

The correct option is C

Graphite


Graphite is a good conductor of electricity because its electrons are delocalized or free to move around. Graphite is structured into planes with tightly bound atoms. There is a great deal of distance between planes, and they are bonded weakly together, allowing the electrons to move around.
