Shining a flashlight on the surface of the crystal causes them to appear shiny or sparkly. Depending on the atoms involved in putting them together, they can bounce off the outside surface.

Where are big crystals are made in volcano?
the magma chamber and then they erupted onto the surface, where the small crystals were formed.
When magma cools slowly below Earth's surface it forms rocks with what type of crystals?
Slow cooling magma below the Earth's surface forms large crystals.
What do you call a covering of tiny crystals on a cold surface?
Frost
Where on Earth's surface do extrusive cool and crystallize?
Chocolate crystals!
What kind of crystals are formed when liquid rock cools slowly beneath the earth's surface?
Coarse large grained crystals.
How can you prove that light travels very quickly?
To prove that light travels very quickly, first, you need a flashlight. Because a flashlight is giving off light into a focused circle, it is still light. If you turn on the flashlight, as soon as you hit the switch or button, the circle of light at the other end shining on something appears instantly. You cannot catch the light in motion towards the surface the light is being aimed onto, and because light travels so fast, that is why you cannot see the light between the flashlight and the light on a surface.
How are crystals formed and how does the rate effect the crystal?
Crystals that are formed below the surface are formed by the cooling of magma. Crystals above the surface are formed when a volcano erupts, and cools, again, above the surface. Crystals that are below the surface usually have a slower rate of cooling than those above the surface, causing bigger crystals because of the slower cooling:)
Why do salt crystals grow faster on pipe cleaners than on yarn?
Pipe cleaners have more surface area per unit length than yarn, allowing more salt crystals to begin to form, which then grow together giving the appearance that the salt crystals are growing faster.
What is the name of when light rays travel form one medium to another?
Refraction is when they change direction slightly when entering the second medium, e.g. flashlight shining down towards water surface
On what surfaces does a clip on flashlight work?
Clip on flashlights work on pretty much any surface that has a shelf like appearance. This is because it needs something to clip on to. Surface should be between eighth inch to inch and a half for most models.
What is different from crystals underground than above?
Underground crystals are bigger where as crystals formed on the surface are smaller.
What effect does surface texture have on growing crystals?
well if ur growing it on a rock or anything outside and natural tht surface will grow the crystals. n the crystals cud mold into the shape of the surface. other than tht, no effect
Which igneous rock can be intrusive and extrusive?
A porphyritic igneous rock demonstrates some extrusive characteristics and some intrusive characteristics. The appearance of phenocrysts (larger crystals) in a fine matrix (small crystals) indicates that the magma had time to cool slowly enough underground to form larger crystals before being erupted at or near the surface.
Why below surface of leaf is not shining green?
Ask the designers

Can stars be seen from the moon when the sun is shining?
No, the moon's surface is too reflective when the light is shining, and therefore the sun's light reflected from the moon's surface blocks any stars from being visible from the surface of the moon by either eye or camera.
When magma cools slowly below Earth's surface it forms rocks with what type of crystals?
Slow cooling magma below the Earth's surface forms large crystals.
