What does interlocking grains mean - Name the rock type containing interlocking crystals?
hi everyone nice to meet you i am katie!
Does marble have interlocking grains?
Limestone grains are interlocking. The simple test to see if a rock's grains are interlocking is to put a drop of water on the surface. If the rock is interlocking, the water will remain on the surface. If it is not interlocking, the water will start to percolate through the rock. :).
What do geologists observe when looking at a rock's texture?
The size of the mineral crystals which comprise the rock.
Is pumice has no grain?
Pumice is so fine grained, it actually doesn't have a grain--because it is a natural volcanic glass. The rough texture is caused by the vesicular nature of the rock--trapped pockets of gas bubbles with sharp glassy edges.
How do you see rock grains on a rock?
with your eyes
What rock has interlocking grains with no specific pattern?

Non- rock has interlocking grains with no specific pattern?
foliated
Does granite have rounded grains?
Granite does not have rounded grains but contains interlocking grains. An example of a rock with rounded grains is a sandstone.

Does granite have Gaps between the Grains?
No. Granite does not have gaps between the grains. The crystals in an intrusive igneous rock are interlocking.

What is the difference between a crystalline rock and a clastic rock?
Crystalline rock is composed of interlocking crystalline grains, as in granite. Clastic rock is composed of rock or mineral grains which have become cemented together by the processes of lithification. Examples of clastic rock are sandstone and conglomerate.
What is non porous rock?
A non porous rock is a rock which has interlocking grains so water can't get into it. A porous rock is like a sponge and a non porous rock is like a stone.
What is a porous rock?
one which allows water to seep between the gaps between the grains which make up the rock. This is because the grains are non-interlocking therefore water can get through. You can look at it a bit like a sponge.
How do geologists determine a rock's texture?
By looking at the size, shape, and pattern of the rock's grains or crystals.
A rock from interlocking crystals that are not lined up?
metamorphic rock
What are interlocking crystals?
Interlocking rocks are basically crystals. They form together and make crystals. So that's were crystal come from in most shops. So now you know that an example of an interlocking rock is a crystal
