The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to understand the properties of coal when it is heated and how it compares to other substances that do vaporize. 1. **Understanding Coal**: Coal is a solid fossil fuel that primarily consists of carbon. When heated, it does not turn into gas (vaporize) like some other substances do. 2. **Combustion Process**: During combustion, substances that vaporize can produce a flame because the vaporized gases ignite. This is typical for substances like wood or gasoline. 3. **Coal's Behavior on Heating**: When coal is heated, it undergoes a process called pyrolysis, where it decomposes into solid residues and gases, but it does not produce a flame because it does not vaporize. 4. **Conclusion**: Since coal does not vaporize when heated, it does not produce a flame while burning. Therefore, the blank in the question can be filled with the word "flame". Final Answer: The coal does not vaporize on heating hence, it does not give out a **flame** while burning.
