Yes and do u have the same work sheet as me page 68 and the packet is called what are metamorphic rocks?
What else can I help you with?
Can contact with magma change the minerals of a rock?
Yes, contact with magma can alter the minerals of a rock through a process called contact metamorphism. This occurs when the heat and fluids from the magma interact with the surrounding rock, causing recrystallization of minerals and the formation of new minerals.
What kinds of rocks change when they come in contact with magma?
All types of rocks.
What is Contact metamorphic?
Contact Metamorphism: When magma comes in contact with other rocks it will heat them and change them into new rocks. This often happens around an igneous intrusion.
What results when rocks come in contact with molten rocks such as those in an igneous intrustion?
When rocks come in contact with molten rocks from an igneous intrusion, the surrounding rocks may undergo contact metamorphism, where their mineralogy and texture are altered due to the heat and chemical reactions with the intruding magma. This can result in the formation of new minerals and textures in the rocks near the intrusion boundary.
Why doesn't metamorphism occur when rocks come in contact with magma?
Metamorphism does occur when rocks come in contact with magma but it is very localised. It is contact metamorphism and a close look with a hand lens will normally show a change to the rock, sometimes only millimetres wide.
What and the difference between igneous and metamorphic rocks?
Igneous rocks are formed when rocks reach the melting point becoming magma, then the magma starts to cool and crystallizes to form igneous rocks. Metamorphic rocks are made when they come in contact with a mass of magma but does not melt providing the energy to drive chemical reactions that recrystallize minerals.
What are minerals of effusive rocks and products of fumoral activities?
minerals of effusive rocks are minerals that are found as result of cooling of magma
What is metamoprphic rock formed from?
Metamorphic rocks are formed when the minerals in a rock are change chemically. Normally these rocks are near magma and get heated up, but do not melt.
How contact and regional rocks can be compared?
Regional rocks are formed when rocks are compacted tightly through heat and pressure. Contact rocks are formed when minerals that lie next/by a hot magma pocket are fused together, but *AREN'T MELTED*. Glad I could help.
What forms when rocks or minerals partially or completely melt?
Lava and magma are two forms of melted rocks
Does magma contain minerals?
Yes, magma often contains various minerals such as quartz, feldspar, olivine, and pyroxene. These minerals are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma as it rises to the Earth's surface.
When rocks come into contact with a heat source such as magma and the rocks get cooked?
Contact metamorphism
