What is the hardness of the Metamorphic rock?

Depends on which one. Diamond is a metamorphosed coal/carbon that is the hardest natural substance known. Marble is metamorphosed limestone that is much softer. It's safe to say that all metamorphosed rocks are harder than they were in their pre-metamorphosed form.


What is incorrect about the explanation that diamonds are metamorphosed coal?

Diamonds are not metamorphosed coal. While both are made of carbon, the processes that create them are different. Diamonds form under high pressure and temperature deep within the Earth's mantle, while coal forms from the accumulation of plant material over time.

The rock you are referring to is anthracite coal, which is a type of metamorphic rock formed from coal with a high carbon content. Anthracite coal burns with a high heat and produces little smoke due to its high carbon content and low volatile matter.
