Coal is formed from dead plant matter, including trees, that was buried under layers of sediment millions of years ago. Over time, the plant material underwent heat and pressure, transforming it into coal through a process called coalification. This process converts the organic material into different forms of coal, such as lignite, bituminous coal, and anthracite, based on the depth of burial and heat applied.
What else can I help you with?
What takes millions of years to form from the pressure of dead plants and trees in swamps?
Coal takes millions of years to form from the pressure of dead plants and trees in swamps.
What material was squeezed over millions of years to form coal?
Coal is formed from plant material that is subjected to high pressure and heat over millions of years. This process typically involves the burial of plant matter in sedimentary rocks and the removal of oxygen through decomposition, resulting in the formation of coal.
Is coal a inexhaustible resource?
No, coal is not an inexhaustible resource. It is a finite resource that forms over millions of years from the remains of plants and trees. Continued extraction and burning of coal can deplete its reserves and contribute to environmental issues such as air pollution and climate change.
What type resource is coal?
Coal is a nonrenewable resource!natural
Is coal organic matter?
Coal is a rock derived from organic processes.
How does coal differ from pine trees as a source of energy?
Coal is a nonrenewable resource, while pine trees are a renewable resource. As sources of energy, the difference between coal and pine trees is that coal is a nonrenewable resource, while pine trees are a renewable resource.
Is burning coal to create steam in power plants the use of nonrenewable energy source?
Depends on where it came from. If this is mined coal( which it usually is) it's nonrenewable. If it is coal made from dead wood, this is renewable. We can always grow more trees.
How much coal came from wigan 1800s?
About 1/5th of coal came from wigan
Are there trees in coal?
Yes... coal is made from trees that have been compressed for thousands of years, and buried under layers of mud.
What type of fossil fuel is made from trees ferns mosses and other marsh plants?
It is coal
How much coal came from wigan in the 1900s?
one tenth of Britain's coal came from Wigan's mine
Why are trees considered a renewable even though coal is not?
Because you can use trees for lots of things but coal is not because you can not use it for lots of things and it takes millions of years for coal to for by then every one will be gone
Where are tree kangaroos from?
the trees. they came from the trees
Does coal form in places that were once swamps?
Coal is formed from 400 million year old trees.
Where the coal coming from?
Under the ground. It comes from dead trees.
Why is coal organic sedimentary?
Because it started out as alive (trees).
Coal was created by the squeezing of over millions of years.?
Trees
