Coal has only one advantage relative to oil, which is that it is abundant and relatively inexpensive. Disadvantages include, it is more polluting (due to impurities in the coal) and it is harder to handle; oil can be pumped, whereas coal has to be shoveled. Coal mining is often more difficult and dangerous than pumping oil out of the ground. Coal dust creates the dangers of explosion, and black lung disease.
What else can I help you with?
One advantage to using coal oil and natural gas is that they each take millions of years to replace-?
An advantage of using coal and natural gas is that is is virtually an endless natural resource.
One advantage to using coal oil and natural gas is that they each take millions of years to replace?
Coal and natural gas are great resources because they do take millions of years to replace and have a virtually endless supply.
Is an oil with the density 0.9 denser than water?
No, relative density is relative to water. Therefore, oil with a relative density of 0.9 is 90% the density of water. Which is why oil floats on top of water. Put both in a glass to see.
What type of resources are oil coal and natural gas?
Oil, Coal and Natural Gas are all Natural Resources that happen to be non-renewable fossil fuels.
Where are the fossil fuels?
Coal, Oil, and natural gas.
What are the advantages for countries to have deposits of coal or oil?

What are advantages and disadvantages of using oil to generate electricity?
Compared to coal, an advantage of using oil to generate electricity is that generators can be taken out of use and then back into use more quickly and flexibly in response to changes in electricity demand, thereby reducing fuel usage. Coal is better suited to base load generation because of the long start-up time required, and will tend to be kept operating even when there is no demand for the electricity. However, natural gas is even more flexible than oil in this respect. A disadvantage of using oil to generate electricity is that the world's supplies of oil are limited, and electricity generation is an inappropriate use of such an adaptable fuel. Another disadvantage is that oil is a fossil fuel and its use therefore adds additional carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
One advantage to using coal oil and natural gas is that they each take millions of years to replace?
Coal and natural gas are great resources because they do take millions of years to replace and have a virtually endless supply.
