No, charcoal is considered a mixture with different substances in it, but if you have pure graphite, it is considered an allotrope of carbon (like diamond).
Well the short answer is YES, charcoal does contain carbon, because to put it simply, charcoal is carbon just in an impure state. Though charcoal contains the element carbon, that is not just what it contains. Because it is impure, obviously impure means not pure, so it has other things besides only carbon.
No charcoal is not an element. Charcoal is a recorce and is made up of elements.
No, it is not a element. It would fall under the category of fossil fuel.
Charcoal is a form of Carbon. The same element that actual coal is made of. This is because the vegetation it comes from is made of Carbon.
Charcoal is not an element. It contains a lot of carbon in the form of graphite which give it its black color.

carbon that is NH
Compound.
Neither. Charcoal is an organic residue consisting mostly of carbon.
By heating it at low temperatures.
We work at a lab testing wood and charcoal burning stoves. Charcoal doesn't burn hotter than wood in a stove. That's why it's better for broiling not burning steaks. Charcoal is used in lots of places like African cities because it makes little smoke and keeps burning for a long time which is more convenient than wood that requires tending. Also charcoal can be made and sold by the rural poor to the urbanites who have more money. And charcoal is lighter than wood for transport. However, more than half of the energy in the wood is wasted when turning wood into charcoal! From an ecological perspective it's a lot better to burn wood cleanly. Charcoal is almost pure carbon ... no moisture, no extraneous chemicals. But don't forget, charcoal is a residue ... a lot of wood was burned to make it.
No. Charcoal is made up of mostly carbon atoms which are not arranged in a crystal lattice. Diamond and graphite are examples of carbon atoms arranged in a lattice. Charcoal has been created from fires for millions of years and can be in rocks.
CHARCOAL
Carbon is common in both diamond and charcoal.
No as charcoal consists on average of only 85-98% carbon, an element is defined as a pure substance.
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.
Carbon
Charcoal is considered a homogenous mixture. It is only made of carbon, and it contains a constant amount of carbon.
Charcoal briquettes fall under the element of carbon. Briquettes are carbonized wood of several different species. Most are made of mesquite.
The silver nitrate, but this is a dangerous compound.
carbonated oxidation
carbonated oxidation
Carbon.
That would be carbon of plant or animal origin.
