coal is something that is formed from the remains of dead animals and oil is found is the earths crust as crude oil. i thnk so,, check with smarter people. lol by nikhita, melbourne, aust
These are same
The Maine differences are the organic source materials and whether the sedimentation was in the sea or on land.
Coal is plant matter ( tress from the Carboniferous ) and oil is from micro-organic matter.
They are two different states of matter. Oil is liquid Coal is solid. NB As an aside during the trade embargo on South Africa (during Apartheid era), no oil was allowed to be imported into South Africa. However, South Africa had large reserves of coal. So South Africa developed SASOL. SASOL is the industrial conversion of coal to oil, so that oil burning furnaces could function. NNB Both oil and coal are hydro-carbons.
Petcoke is a byproduct of a Oil refinery whereas Coal is fossil fuel formed naturally from the deposition of plants, animals, etc. over a period of millions of years

Obsidian has a higher luster(shinier) than coal, coal is organic, and coal is sedimentary and obsidian is igneous
peat is soft and the others aren't
difference between traditional sources of energy and coal
Fossils are the remains of plants and animals, and fossil fuels are decomposed plants and animals that form coal, oil, and natural gas.
A natural landform is the valleys and hills that nature has created. A natural resource is the coal, oil and iron ores, and so on.
Use water and coal. :D
Oil is a liquid and Coal is a solid We use coal for energy and we use oil for our cars to lubricate cars,planes,and all kinds of machines so they can run better and so they don't overheat. We use oil to heat our homes.
