Over the years it has been said that diamonds formed from the metamorphism of coal. According to Geology.com, we now know this is untrue. “Coal has rarely played a role in the formation of diamonds. In fact, most diamonds that have been dated are much older than Earth’s first land plants – the source material of coal!

At about 763° Celsius (1,405° Fahrenheit), however, diamonds oxidize. Oxygen is a major part of our atmosphere, and substances oxidize all around us, all the time. Rust, for instance, is an example of the oxidation of iron. Rust is also known as iron oxide.

Carbon

Diamonds are minerals, and minerals are by definition solid, crystalline, inorganic substances of uniform chemical composition. Thus diamonds are inorganic. Besides, diamonds are an allotrope, or form, of carbon.

Charcoal is largely pure carbon and hence its chemical formula is C. It still contains some impurities such as H2O H 2 O but these are a small…

Regular intake of activated charcoal may even cause nutrition deficiency or malnutrition. Here are the risks of consuming activated charcoal: It can prevent your body from digesting food and absorbing nutrients. It can make medications and supplements less effective.

Lump charcoal is made from wood scraps from saw mills and from flooring, furniture, and building materials manufacturers. Branches, twigs, blocks, trim, and other scraps are carbonized. Every brand is different. Some swear they use no building materials.

Coal is a rock you dig out of the ground (that much I knew). Charcoal is a man-made product, and it’s made from wood. You make charcoal by heating wood to high temperatures in the absence of oxygen. The results is that the wood partially combusts, removing water and impurities and leaving behind mostly pure carbon.

Coal and charcoal both are carbon compounds. They are impure states of carbon so they cannot exhibit all the properties of pure carbon….Charcoal:

Common charcoal is made from peat, coal, wood, coconut shell, or petroleum. Sugar charcoal is obtained from the carbonization of sugar and is particularly pure.

The two materials in question, Coal and Charcoal, are essentially used for fuel and smelting purposes. They burn better and last longer than using wood as burning fuel and can be used in a variety of recipes or material conversions, and the major difference between the two is the way they are obtained.

Dried Kelp Block is a storage block added by Minecraft. It can be used to smelt 20 items in a Furnace, making it more efficient than Coal, as only slightly more than one piece of coal is required to create a block.

Lava

The lava bucket is the best fuel source…on paper. It burns longer than any single unit of fuel, but players can’t stack it. This makes it not very efficient.

Furnace/table

The type of fuel that should be used depends on the number of items in question. For larger jobs, a single lava bucket or a block of coal can smelt more items than can fit in the furnace—both input and output are limited to a stack of 64, but a block of coal smelts 80 items, and lava can smelt 100 items.

When used in a furnace as a fuel, a piece of charcoal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), the same as coal.

Lump Charcoal It burns hotter and cleaner than briquettes, but the heat is variable and not as consistent, so it requires a little more experience managing your fire to get good results in cooking. Lump charcoal burns hotter than briquettes.

80 blocks

The primary ingredient to make charcoal is to burn wood logs. Trees can be found almost anywhere and each log will yield one charcoal. A furnace can be made with eight cobblestones, and as long as you do not spawn in the sky, you can always dig down to find more stone.
