Rock is generally an insulator. Note that the color of a rock is usually not a good indicator of is composition of properties.


Will hair wrapped in graphite conduct electricity?

The hair won't, but the graphite will. Graphite conducts whether or not hair is present. The hair in this situation is really just a means to physically support the graphite. So, yes, anythingcoated in graphite will conduct.


Do diamonds conduct electricity?

they don't conduct electricity: they have no free electrons. graphite, however, made of the same stuff as diamond (carbon) has a different structure, which means that it does have free electrons, and a lot of them. Therefore graphite is a good conductor of electricity.


Does a non metal conduct electricity?

yes. For instance graphite or silicon.


Will pencil lead conduct electricity?

Yes, Pencil Lead does conduct Electricity. Copper, Gold and Silver though are the best conductors.


Does wooden casing from a pencil conduct electricity?

No, wooden casing from a pencil does not conduct electricity because wood is an insulator. The graphite core inside the pencil is what conducts electricity.
