How do people GET coal?

They mine down to get coal. After it's out of the ground, it goes onto a conveyor belt which carries the coal to the power plant. Then it gets cleaned and after that it gets burned. After it gets burned they put it into the water. The water makes the steam (because the coal is hot and water is cold) and the steam turns the turbine. The turbine turns the generator and the generator makes the electricity. Then it's carried to the government with transmission lines.


What phases does coal go through before it forms a diamond?

Coal goes through several phases before it forms a diamond. First, it undergoes burial and becomes peat. Over millions of years of high pressure and heat, peat transforms into lignite, then into bituminous coal, and finally into anthracite coal. If the conditions are right, further heat and pressure can turn coal into graphite and eventually into diamond.


Why coal does not produce Flame?

Coal does not produce a visible flame because it needs a high amount of heat to ignite and burn. When coal is heated, it first releases volatile gases which can be lit to produce a flame. The coal itself then burns with a red glow due to the heat generated from the burning gases.
