Does coal or oil burn hotter?
Oil generally burns hotter than coal. This is because the carbon content in oil is higher than that in coal, resulting in a more efficient combustion process and higher heat output.
Is burning oil better than coal?
Burning oil produces fewer emissions and pollutants compared to coal, making it slightly better for the environment in terms of air quality. However, both oil and coal are fossil fuels that contribute to climate change, so transitioning to renewable energy sources is the most sustainable option.
Is there more known coal reserves in Illinois than oil reserves?
No, there are more known oil reserves in Illinois than coal reserves. Illinois has significant crude oil reserves, particularly in the southern part of the state, while its coal reserves have decreased due to mining activities.
Does oil burn hotter than gas or coal?
Oil generally burns at a similar temperature to gas, but hotter than coal. The burning temperature can also depend on the specific type of oil or gas being used.
Why coal is used at the source of production whereas mineral oil is transported over great distances?
Coal is ready to be burned coming right out of the ground. You can build a power plant near the mine and save on the transportation cost, since it's cheaper to transport electricity than bulk coal. Oil has to be refined before it can be used. When the crude oil is refined, it yields multiple products, and each one has to be kept separate from the other products. It's cheaper, therefore, to transport crude oil and refine it near the end user rather than transporting the distillates separately.
Is coal cheaper than oil?
yes
Is hydroelectric power more expensive than coal and oil?
no it is cheaper
What are two benefits of crude oil?
1. its easier to get out of the ground than coal 2. cheaper than coal to transport
When is coal used?
Coal is used when a company wants to produce a huge amount of heat energy for the lowest cost, such as for an electrical power plant. Coal is considerably cheaper than oil or gas.
Is replacing oil rings cheaper?
Cheaper than what?
What advantages does oil have over coal?
Oil is usually cleaner to mine and transport than coal (unless there's an oil spill!)Oil emits less carbon dioxide pollution than coal when burnt, so it contributes less to global warming than coal does.
Is wind power cheaper than coal?
yes but im guessing
Is gas heating better than oil?
is gas cheaper than oil
Which is cheaper oil or gas?
It depends on the current market prices, but generally, gas is cheaper than oil.
Does coal or oil burn hotter?
Oil generally burns hotter than coal. This is because the carbon content in oil is higher than that in coal, resulting in a more efficient combustion process and higher heat output.
Why it cheaper to transport goods by rail rather than roads?
coal was in abundance and was very cheap thus the running of the trains was cheaper
Why is oil easier to burn than coal?
because it is
