Density of Coal may vary, depends on the type (structure) and form. Below are some density of coal :
- Coal, Anthracite, solid 1.506 gr/ml
- Coal, Anthracite, broken 1.105 gr/ml
- Coal, Bituminous, solid 1.346 gr/ml
- Coal, Bituminous, broken 0.833 gr/ml

The density of coal can vary depending on the type and grade, but it typically ranges from 1.1 to 1.5 grams per cubic centimeter.
Density is irrespective of quantity.Different types of coal have different densities:Anthracite has a density of about 1,5 (1500 kg/m3)Bituminous has a density of about 1,35 (1350 kg/m3)These densities are for the solid oreWhen broken the density is about 3/4 of the solid value.
To find the density of a piece of coal, you would first measure the mass of the coal using a scale. Next, you would measure the volume of the coal using displacement method or a caliper. Finally, divide the mass of the coal by its volume to calculate the density, which is typically expressed in g/cm³ or kg/m³.
The density of processed coal can vary depending on factors like the type of coal and how it has been processed. Typically, the density of processed coal can range from about 0.8 to 1.5 grams per cubic centimeter.
The bulk density of coking coal typically ranges from 0.8 to 1.5 grams per cubic centimeter, depending on the coal's composition and particle size. This parameter is important for determining the handling and storage requirements of the coal, as it affects transportation costs and storage capacity. Testing is usually done using standard procedures to accurately measure the bulk density.
No, coal does not float in water because its density is higher than that of water. This means that coal will sink when placed in water.
