Graphite conducts electricity.
Carbon is a poor conductor of electricity. In its pure form, carbon is considered an insulator. However, carbon can be engineered to conduct electricity when it is in the form of graphite or graphene.
A lead of a pencil is a conductor because it is made of graphite, which allows electricity to flow through it. Graphite is a good conductor of electricity due to the free movement of electrons in its molecular structure.
Pencil "lead" is not really lead, the metal - Pb. Pencils are made with graphite which is a mineral, an insulator.
Graphite is a good conductor of electricity due to its delocalized electrons that can move freely within the material, allowing for the flow of electric current.
insulator bcz its a bad conductor.....

see, the pencil's outer shield is made out of wood which is a bad conductor of electricity but the graphite core is a good conductor. thank you.
Graphite is a conductor of electricity, but its conductivity varies greatly with direction: Conduction is high along the plane of the sheets of carbon atoms found in a single crystal of graphite, but much lower perpendicular to this plane.

Yes, a pencil is considered an insulator because it is made of materials such as wood and graphite that do not conduct electricity well. When it comes to electrical conductivity, insulators like pencils have high resistance, which prevents the flow of electricity.
Wood is a fair insulator, but graphite is a reasonably good conductor, so it depends on which part of the pencil you're measuring.
An insulator.
Graphite is a good conductor of electricity beacause graphite is sp-2 hybirdize orbit
