What rocks can form from the evaporation of a solution?
Through either precipitation orevaporation, a chemical sedimentary rock can be formed.
Physical precipitation of gypsum due to evaporation of seawater produces which kind of sedimentary rock?
chemical
How can you tell the difference between an evaporate and a clastic sedimentary rock?
To put it simply, 'clastic' means that the sedimentary rock is deposited from 'recycled' previous rock, 'organic' means that it is sedimentary rock derived from some form of life - plants or animals, and 'chemical' means that it has precipitated out of water through evaporation or through chemical interaction of two different bodies of water.
What rock forms from evaporation of water?
Chemical sedimentary rocks
What is rock salt made from the evaporation of seawater?
Chemical sedimentary rock is created by precipitation of minerals out of, or evaporation from, saturated solutions that are high in dissolved minerals. Rock gypsum and rock salt are two examples.
What removes water from sediment to form sedimentary rock?
Evaporation removes water from sediment to form sedimentary rock. When water evaporates everything that was in the water dries out. The evaporation of water from sediment takes a very long time to form sedimentary rock.
Which rock is sedimentary in origin and formed as a result of chemical processes?
Dolostone because it is a sedimentary rock that is formed through a chemical process that involves evaporation and crystallization.
Which rock is sedimentary origin and formed as a result of chemical process?
Dolostone because it is a sedimentary rock that is formed through a chemical process that involves evaporation and crystallization.
What sedimentary rock is not classified by the size of clastic sediment that forms the rock?
Chemical sedimentary rock, those formed from precipitation or evaporation from saturated solutions.
Why do chemical sedimentary rocks form of primarily in areas that have high rates of evaporation?
This is just a guess, but, as the water evaporates, the solution becomes more concentrated with the chemical. More of the chemical would sink to the bottom of the body of water and eventually form sedimentary rock.
What rock is formed from biological remains or precipitation?
From biological processes: organic sedimentary rock.From precipitation or evaporation: chemical sedimentary rock.
What rocks can form from the evaporation of a solution?
Through either precipitation orevaporation, a chemical sedimentary rock can be formed.
What kind of sedimentary rocks form from minerals dissolved in water?
Chemical sedimentary rock is formed from the precipitation out of, or evaporation of saturated solutions. Rock salt, rock gypsum are examples of chemical sedimentary rock.

Where do chemical rocks form?
Chemical sedimentary rock is created by precipitation of minerals out of, or evaporation from, saturated solutions that are high in dissolved minerals. Rock gypsum and rock salt are two examples.
What type of sedimentary rock would form in an evaporating desert lake?
Chemical (or non-clastic) sedimentary rock.
