Explanation:

Bituminous coal is formed as more pressure is applied to lignite coal. The greater the pressure applied, the more water is expelled, which increases the amount of pure carbon present and increases the heat content of the coal. Bituminous coal is often classified as sub-bituminous or bituminous. The difference is that sub-bituminous is the transition stage from lignite to bituminous coal. Bituminous coal is widely used in the United States and across Europe.
