Study Notes
- Fossil fuels are created from decomposed plant and animal matter buried for millions of years.
- Energy resources include renewable and nonrenewable types.
Coal
- Coal has four types which include peat, lignite, bituminous, and anthracite.
Peat
- Peat is the lowest quality coal.
- It is light brown.
- The carbon content is 52% to 60%.
- Burning peat produces a sooty flame.
Lignite
- Lignite ranges from yellow to dark brown.
- Lignite is considered a low quality coal.
- It has a low heat content.
Bituminous coal
- Bituminous coal is known as black coal.
- Bituminous coal is relatively soft.
- It contains bitumen.
- Its color is dark brown or black.
Anthracite
- Anthracite is the highest quality coal.
- The carbon content is 92.1% to 98%.
- Anthracite is the best type of coal.
- It is widely used for heating.
