we know that the coal is mainly made of carbon. It is a non-metal which cannot conduct electricity. How is then ,coal- the major source of power generation in india ?
Answers
Explanation:
Coal provides about half of India's commercial primary energy supply today and is the dominant fuel for power production in India. Most coal is sold to power producers, predominantly under fuel supply agreements, at administered prices. But, for years, CIL has not kept up with growing demand.
Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity.
graphite is the non-metal that is a good conductor of electricity.
So, in here graphite is a non metal that is good conductor of electricity so my analysis on this is, like graphite this is also a non metal which can produce electricity... Btw I am sorry if I am wrong...
