Why the carbon compounds are poor conductor of electricity?

  • 10

As,the covalent compound do not give rise to any ions,(cation or anion) in aqueous solution and  hence, they do not have any free electrons therefore they are poor conductors of electricity.

Carbon compounds are poor conductors of electricity as they form covalent bonds, so it does not give rise to free electrons ( all electrons are used in making the covalent bond) and as a carbon compound does not dissociate itself into ions, therefore carbon compounds are poor conductors of electricity.

 Please thumbs up for me!!!
