sulfuric acid is the kind of acid in acid rain sometimesAnswer:Acid rain contains sulfuric and sulfurous acid. The concentration os much lower than laboratory supplies of sulfuric acid
Coal refining is nowhere near as complex as oil refining. Coal is washed with a water or chemical bath to remove some impurities. As much as 30 percent of the sulfur can be removed by washing. At the power plant, coal is pulverized to a heavy powder just before being burned. From http://www.ucsusa.org/clean_energy/coalvswind/brief_coal.html
Sulfur is not used for health.
Sulfur dioxide in air = 1 ppm
No. coal is coal and diamond is diamond. They are both formed from carbon, but diamond is much harder than coal.
coal whieghs about 20-30 pounds
None. A pellet of uranium contains uranium, not coal.
Most charcoal does contain sulfur. There are limit on how much sulfur commercial charcoal can contain. Pure carbon is an element and thus contains no sulfur (another element) but charcoal which is predominatly carbon is made from vegetable matter (wood, heated in anerobic (no oxygen) environment). As such there are "impurities" which remain in the charcoal.
well how long is a piece of string
Yes, both coal and oil contain small quantities of lead, but not very much- about 1%.
For one cobblestone block you will only need a single piece of coal. One coal will smelt up to eight items.
Pure Epsom salts do not contain any lead. Since Epsom salts are magnesium sulfate, they contain only magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen.
There is not any titanic coal because nobody tried to leave with it because at the time individual bit of coal were worthless and nobody would risk getting trapped in the boiler rooms when the watertight bulkheads closed for some coal.

Coal is a convenient, low cost fuel. However, coal is also dirty, producing air borne particulate matter and numerous dangerous compounds. Acid rain is a result of the burning of high sulfur coal. Coal often contains heavy metals that are extremely hazardous to life. New generation coal fired power plants are much cleaner, but very expensive and rarely required by environmental laws in the US.
Titanic used about 5, 900 tons of coal.
