Graphite is a mineral that is not a chemical compound; it is composed solely of carbon atoms arranged in a crystalline structure. Unlike compounds, which consist of two or more different elements chemically bonded together, graphite is a pure element. Its unique structure gives it distinct properties, such as electrical conductivity and lubricity.
