Yes, the burning of any hydrocarbon produces carbon dioxide. This equation illustrates the burning of a hydrocarbon.
CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + energy
As you can see carbon dioxide is produced along with water and energy.
Yes burning coal or any carbon based fuel produces carbon dioxide.

Is carbon dioxide produced by burning coal and natural gas?
'Is carbon dioxide produced by burning' carbon rich compounds in an oxygen rich environment, I'm only going to give you one guess at this - better make it a good one!
What does coal give off?
it gives of carbon dioxide when it is burned
Why does Coal give off a large amount of carbon?
Coal is essentially made out of carbon and when that carbon is burned it combines with Oxygen in the air to produce CO (Carbon monoxide) and CO2 (Carbon dioxide) gases both of which contribute to global warming.
What is burning coal?
Burning coal is an exothermic reaction as it give heat
What gases do candles give off when burning?
Air is mostly Nitrogen, but that is not the "burning" part; Oxygen is probably what you are looking for, as that is the part that helps the candle burn, without there would be no fire. Or maybe you are looking for Carbon dioxide, that is what burning candles (which are mostly carbon) produces. What gas causes a candle to burn? Oxygen. It is the oxygen in the atmosphere that chemically combines with the wax of the candle to give Carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. What does candle need from air to burn? A candle requires oxygen (O2) to continue its combustion reaction and produce CO2 and H2O.

What does burning fossil fuel give off?
Burning fossil fuels such as natural gas, coal, oil and gasoline raises the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Why coal does not give out water?
Coal is an allotrope of carbon. When burnt, coal will give carbon dioxide. Water is not formed, because there is no hydrogen in coal that will be oxidised to water.
Why do homes use natural gas for central heating instead of coal or oil?
It is because it is cleaner in burning and does not give a lot of carbon dioxide.
What does coal give off?
it gives of carbon dioxide when it is burned
Does fire give off carbon dioxide?
If it is burning carbon or something that contains carbon, yes.
Where can i find a diagram of How does burning coal make carbon dioxide?
The related link below, will not give you a diagram, but may help with future questions. Remember, these particular sites are not always accurate.
What do hydrocarbons give off when they are heated?
The products of hydrocarbons burning are carbon dioxide and water.
What fuels give out pollution when they are burned?
The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases carbon dioxide (CO2) pollution which is causing global warming. The burning of coal releases other pollutants like sulphur dioxide (SO2) , nitrogen oxides (NOx) , mercury and aerosol particles. This causes acid rain, as well as bronchitis, asthma and other human illnesses.
If burning sugar is a chemical reaction can you give me an evidence?
Burning is a chemical reaction; sugar is transformed in carbon dioxide and water.
Which processes increase the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Respiration: All animals breathe out carbon dioxide, but this is part of the carbon cycle.Volcanic Eruptions: These give off massive amounts of Carbon Dioxide, but humans add the same amount with three days of fossil fuel emissions.Combustion: Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide (CO2), is the main process increasing CO2 levels.
Why does Coal give off a large amount of carbon?
Coal is essentially made out of carbon and when that carbon is burned it combines with Oxygen in the air to produce CO (Carbon monoxide) and CO2 (Carbon dioxide) gases both of which contribute to global warming.
