∙ 14y agoQ = m*c*delta Tc for coal = 0.24 (depending on its origin)Q = 5*0.24*(220-20) = 240 Joulesc for anthracite coal is also given as 0.201 which will give an answer of 201 Joules
Coal. Coal fired plant generate the bulk of IS electricity making.
compared to what. Percentage of coal used to make iron/steel, or percentage of coal shipped overseas, or percentage of coal used to make electricity, or....
It could mean the geological spread of coal seams in the ground. Or it could mean the process of getting the coal from the mines to the consumers.
The US had an abundance of coal and natural gas. It is estimated that 50% of the electricity generated in the US was from coal through burning fossil fuels.
The gas given out when coal burns is carbon dioxide (CO2).

coal
When coal burns, it produces heat. This can be converted to other forms of energy.
Just about one-half, due to losses of Energy.
we release the potential energy to heat energy to do work
A coal-fired energy plant is one that burns coal (as the source of energy) to make electricity or drive machinery.
Yes, when coal burns, it releases heat energy as well as greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide into the surroundings. This process of burning coal is used to generate electricity in power plants.
Lignite.
The energy released by burning coal comes from the combustion of carbon in the coal. This process generates heat energy, which is released in the form of thermal energy and light. The energy content of coal is typically measured in British thermal units (BTUs) or joules per unit of mass.
When coal burns, it releases heat energy and produces carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other byproducts. The combustion process breaks down the carbon content in coal, releasing heat and energy that can be used for various purposes such as electricity generation or heating. However, burning coal also releases pollutants and greenhouse gases, which contribute to air pollution and climate change.
