Why do rocks cool and crystallize?
Not all rocks do cool and crystallize, your question is meaningless.
Do sedimentary rocks cool and crystallize?
No, sedimentary rocks are deposited and undergo lithofication over time. Igneous rocks cool and crystallize
Do felsic rocks crystallize at lower temperatures?
Yes they do.
Do rocks with higher melting points crystallize first?
yes
What term describes igneous rocks that crystallize inside the Earth?
Intrusive.
Difference between volcanic and plutonic rocks?
Plutonic rocks solidify and crystallize beneath the Earth's surface. They are composed of large crystals. Volcanic rocks solidify and crystallize on the Earth's surface or under the sea. They are made up of very small crystals.
Can Molten rock material from which minerals can crystallize be called magma?
This question is already answered. From previously existing rocks sedimentary rocks, igneous rocks, and metamorphic rocks are all formed.
How are the fragments glued together in sedimentary rocks?
Minerals crystallize out from the water surrounding the grains and act as cement.
Igneous rocks that crystallize from magma and that are composed almost entirely of quartz and feldspar have a composition that is?
Granitic Composition
Why are crystals found in intrusive rocks?
due to slow cooling of magma within the earth causes the minerals to crystallize.
How do you know when rocks crystallize?
when rocks crysallize their are differences. on of the main differences is that the crystals in the rock grow larger than they already are. secondly there size increase from their original size.
What igneous rocks form below Earths surface?
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive igneous rocks. They crystallize when magma enters an underground chamber and cools very slowly.
