How can you change the density of solid rock?
Melting the rock to its liquid form then re-freezing it into a solid will realign the rock's crystaline structure thereby altering the density.
Water cannot pass through solid rock because?
impermeable
Is rock solid liquid or gas?
1. Earth (the material) is a solid. 2. Earth (the planet) is a solid with a liquid center.
How weathering and erosion work together?
how can water and gravity work together to erode soil, sediment, and rock
What is a name for a solid liquad and gas?
Solid - A rock, icecube, clay, or wood Liquid - Water Gas - Fossil Fuels, Gasoline
What can sedimentary rocks form?
Any rock that breaks down into sediments and then pressed back into a solid form.
How can water erode materials?
Water seeps into cracks and breaks apart the rock or water rubs the side of the rock that is exposed and breaks off pieces of the rock.
What process breaks solid rock into smaller pieces?
Weathering and erosion breaks rocks into smaller pieces.
What breaks rock into sediment?
Wind and water.
When and how does magma form solid rock?
It cools and becomes solid
What is rock that are compacted and cemented together to form a solid rock?
sedimentary rock.
What do artesian wells use to bring water the surface?

Why do rocks break after being frozen?
When water gets in a rock the water freezes and erodes and breaks the rock.
What can water damage?
it damages metal by rusting it Water in its purest form can dissolve rocks and minerals. It can erode mountains and cut through solid rock.
Name the process when water freezes in a rock and breaks the rock apart?
it is called hi there
Does freezing then thawing a mechanical weathering of a rock?
Yes, it is a form of mechanical weathering. Water manages to get into a crack in a rock, and with cold temperatures, freezes. When transferring from a liquid to a solid, the molecules of water expand by crystallization, widening the crack in the rock.
When melted rock crystallizes into a solid form it becomes a?
It becomes an igneous rock.
