What else can I help you with?
Can rocks only change on the inside?
No rocks can change on the outside also. But it is going to take a log time for a rock to change.
Why do minerals only occur in metamorphic rocks?
because of the metamorphism when temperature and pressure inside earths crust change that were present in the rock when it formed
Does only heat and pressure change rocks?
No.
What type of rock can only form on or near earths surface?
Sedimentary rocks are the type of rocks that can only form on or very near Earth's surface. Sedimentary rocks form from weathering processes that occur on Earth's surface.
Do igneous rocks form only beneath earth's surface?
No
Which type of rock can only form on or very near Earth's surface?
Any type of extrusive igneous rock. (i.e. basalt, rhyolite, andesite...) Also, some sedimentary rocks form at the surface by the precipitation of minerals when solutions cool or the water evaporates out of them. Examples include travertine, a calcite-rich rock that forms in hot mineral spring as the water cools, and various evaporites.
Is it true that igneous rocks form only beneath earths surface?
No, igneous rocks can form both beneath and above the Earth's surface. Intrusive igneous rocks form beneath the surface as magma cools and solidifies underground. Extrusive igneous rocks, on the other hand, form on the Earth's surface when lava cools and solidifies quickly.
Why the earth made?
it is made up of rocks so only astronauts called earth as a terrestrial plant
What 3 rocks on the earth?
I'm going to tell you right now there are a lot more than three rocks on earth. However, there are only three basic TYPES of rocks, and those are Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic.
Are igneous rocks formed only beneath earth's surface?
No. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed beneath the earth's surface when magma cools and extrusive igneous rocks form when lava extrudes from a volcano and cools.
Is crushing rocks a chemical property or physical property?
Crushing rocks is a physical property because it does not change the chemical composition of the rocks. It only alters their physical state or appearance.
Why are the oldest rocks only millions of years old?
The premise is incorrect. Some rocks on Earth are billions of years old.
