Question

A company requires the best variety of coal for its manufacturing unit. Which one of the following coal would you recommend?

• A. Lignite
• B. Bituminous
• C. Anthracite
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Anthracite

We would recommend the coal with highest carbon content i.e. Anthracite (80% carbon content). Lignite & Bituminous has carbon content of around 25-30% and 60-80% respectively which is much lower than that of Anthracite. High carbon content ensures high energy which will prove useful for the industry.
