    This document appears to be instructions for a chemistry laboratory activity involving the analysis and classification of different coal samples. Students are asked to calculate the percentage compositions of moisture, volatile matter, ash and fixed carbon for one coal sample and use the results to determine the ASTM group the coal belongs to based on tables provided. They are also given a sample problem to solve.

    2. Calculate the percentage volatile matter content of coal C1.
    3. Calculate the percentage ash content of coal C1.
    4. Calculate the percentage of fixed carbon content of coal C1.
    5. From the results obtained, calculate the fixed carbon and volatile content on a dry, mineral
    matter free (dmmf) basis.
