Why is Coke more porous than bituminous coal? ... After it cools and hardens, the residual coke has a high porosity, with a strong framework structure enriched in carbon. Coke is a better fuel for smelting iron ore than coal, because its high porosity allows gases to circulate through the blast furnace.

Coal is a black sedimentary rock occurring in coal beds and coal mines. Coal is mined from these coal beds and mines. It takes millions of years for its formation. It occurs naturally. When plants and dead animals decay and get buried under the mud, carbon gets trapped in the sediments and carbonizations take places.

Various types of coal are used for various types of purposes. For e.g. thermal coal is used for the production of electricity or power. Steel production uses coking steel. Activated carbon is used in filters and water purification. Activated charcoal is used to make face packs and toothpaste. Coal is also used for manufacturing and in cooking, for example, barbecue. It helps to create alumina refineries. Products such as resins, lubricants, certain hair shampoos, etc also contain coal in it.
