Question:

Which of the following substances is a bad conductor of electricity?

Options:

Diamond

Gold

Silver

Graphite

Correct Answer:

Diamond

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → Diamond

Gold, silver, and graphite are all good conductors of electricity due to their free-flowing electrons.


Diamond, despite being a good conductor of heat, has a tightly packed structure that hinders the movement of electrons, making it a bad conductor of electricity.
