Answer:
It is an almost pure form of carbon. It is a tough, porous and black substance. It is made by heating coal in the absence of air. It burns without producing any smoke.
The most common use of coke is as a fuel for stoves, furnaces and blacksmithing. It is sometimes preferred over coal because burning coke produces very little smoke. It is also used to produce iron in a blast furnace. Coke is used to manufacture steel and many other materials.
