What else can I help you with?
How are mineral formed by crystallization from magma?
As magma cools, elements combine to form minerals.
How is magma and igneous rocks related?
Magma is molten rock, and igneous rock is cooled magma.
The pressure and heat that produces magma are caused in part by?
Radioactive elements
Are The elements found in magma are quite different from those found in Earths crust?
Yes, the elements found in magma can be different from those found in Earth's crust. Magma can contain a higher concentration of elements like silicon, aluminum, magnesium, iron, and calcium compared to the crust, as these elements are more common in the mantle where magma is primarily formed. Additionally, the process of partial melting and differentiation can lead to variations in element composition between magma and the crust.
How are magma and fossil fuel related?
Magma and fossil fuel are both earth related. They both come from deep under the earth.
What are the common elements in magma?
Silicon, aluminum, magnesium, iron.
How is strength of a volcano eruption related to the magma in the volcano?
If the magma is more viscous, the eruption is stronger.
How would crystals formed early from magma be larger and better formed than those formed later?
The crystals formed early by magma would not be deficient of certain elements. Once these elements are used up, they are not available in the magma to form later crystals.
Which two elements make up the earth's core?
magma and rock
Is it true that the elements found in magma are quite different from those found in earths crust?
Yes, the elements found in magma and the Earth's crust can be different due to the melting and differentiation processes that occur in the Earth's interior. While both can contain common elements, the magma tends to have higher concentrations of elements that preferentially partition into the melt during melting processes, leading to some differences in composition.
Magma viscosity is directly related to what?
silica content
What is the origin of the chemical elements in the minerals in nonfoliated rock?
The chemical elements in minerals found in nonfoliated rocks are typically sourced from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. As the magma cools and crystallizes, minerals form with specific chemical compositions based on the elements present in the original magma. These elements are derived from the Earth's mantle and crust through processes such as partial melting, fractional crystallization, and assimilation of surrounding rocks.
