What are the three main types of magma what factor determines these classifications?
The three main types of magma are basaltic magma, andesitic magma, and rhyolitic magma. They are classified according to their mineral composition. Basaltic magma is composed of SiO2 45-55 wt%, high in Fe, Mg, Ca, low in K, Na. Andesitic magma is composed of SiO2 55-65 wt%, intermediate. in Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, K. Rhyolitic magma is composed of SiO2 65-75%, low in Fe, Mg, Ca, high in K, Na.

How many types of magma are there?
their are many types of magma because when a volcano has soft magma that means it either exploded small or the magma was going really slow and fast magma and big exploding volcano's are hard magma.:)
Which two rocks have similar composition to limestone?
Calcite and aragonite have similar chemical compositions as limestone. Vaterite also has a similar composition, but is it a less common mineral.
What is the major difference between mineral characteristics and mineral properties?
you are steank okay
What igneous rocks have a mineral composition between that of granitic and basaltic rocks?

What is igneous that have mineral composistions between those grantic and basaltic rocks?
andesitic rock

What is the first mineral to crystalize out of a hot basaltic magma?
Olivine
How do you determine the mineral compositions of a basalt?
by XRD.
Do all igneous rooks have the same mineral compositions?
yes
What are the mineral compositions of granite?
Granite has feldspar, quartz, biotite.
What is the mineral composition of an intermediate igneous rock?
felsic and something else i do not remember the second one.
Do minerals have chemical compositions?
Yes. Every mineral has a chemical composition.
