No, stalagmites are formed from calcium carbonate deposits left behind by dripping water in caves. The water does not contain salt but rather minerals that have been dissolved from the surrounding rock. Over time, these minerals build up and solidify into the stalagmite formations.
What else can I help you with?
Are the stalagmites formed from water containing salt?
No, stalagmites are typically formed by water dripping down from the roof of a cave and depositing calcite minerals. The presence of salt in the water can sometimes influence the formation of unique mineral structures within stalagmites, but salt itself is not the primary component in stalagmite formation.
Are stalagmites formed from water containing salt?
No, stalagmites are formed from mineral deposits left behind by dripping water in caves. The water may contain dissolved minerals, but the presence of salt specifically is not a necessary component for stalagmite formation.
Do stalagmites grow better with salt or limestone powder?
Stalagmites grow better with limestone powder because it helps replenish the minerals in the rock formations, promoting their growth. Salt can inhibit the growth of stalagmites by disrupting the natural mineral balance within the cave environment.
How is salt water made?
Salt water is made by dissolving salt (sodium chloride) in water. When salt is added to water, the sodium and chloride ions separate and disperse throughout the water, creating a solution with a salty taste.
Can salt be boiled out of water?
nope sorry who ever does not know this is riri. and if you don't know what riri is find out! jajajaja

Is the salt water actually salt?
Salt water is a solution of salt, containing of course salt.
Which one of the following statements is correct A Stalagmites are narrower than stalactites B Stalagmites form on the ceiling of a cavern C Stalagmites are formed from water containing salt?
The only statement actually listed is not correct, at least not always. (We're really not ideally set up here for multiple choice questions.) the answer is: Stalagmites are coned-shaped deposits. D is correct. Stalagmites are cone-shaped deposits. +++ As a general rule C is wrong, certainly in limestone; but Iranian cavers recently discovered a beautiful cave formed entirely by dissolution of the salt in a massive rock-salt bed; and this contains really lovely salt-crystal formations! A more common exception is gypsum - calcium sulphate - which often appears as lovely, fine porcupine quill-like elongated crystals, on the clay which it is its mineral source.
Does salt crystal come from stalagmites?
It is not true.
What is the definitoin of salt water?

Do stalagmites grow better with salt or limestone powder?
Stalagmites grow better with limestone powder because it helps replenish the minerals in the rock formations, promoting their growth. Salt can inhibit the growth of stalagmites by disrupting the natural mineral balance within the cave environment.
What happens when salt water is poured into the glass containing cold tap water?
When salt water is poured into a glass containing cold tap water, the two liquids will initially mix together. Because salt water is denser than fresh water, it will sink to the bottom. Eventually, the two liquids may form distinct layers, with the denser salt water at the bottom and the less dense fresh water at the top.
What is the difference between salt water and regular water?

What type of salt dissolves in water?

Can salt water be made from salt and water?
