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.
How does salt get out of the ocean?
Saltwater will stay salty as long as there are dissolved salts within the water. Once these salts precipitate to form salt crystals the water will no longer be salty. However, the temperature and amount of salt in the water will control the rate of salt precipitation and therefore, the length of time the water stays salty.
What makes the crystals grow in rock candy?
It's easy to grow your own sugar crystals! Sugar crystals are also known as rock candy since the crystallized sucrose (table sugar) resembles rock crystals and because you can eat your finished product. You can grow beautiful clear sugar crystals with sugar and water or you can add food coloring to get colored crystals. It's simple, safe, and fun. Boiling water is required to dissolve the sugar, so adult supervision is recommended for this project.
Why would hurricane's winds get stronger when it reaches water?
Hurricanes actually form over water. Their energy comes from moisture that evaporates off warm ocean water. In fact they cannot form or last very long over land.
How long does it take large silicon crystals to form?

Minerals of this family tend to form long needlelike crystals?
amphiboles
How long a cup of water outside takes to evaporates?
This depends on many factors.
Are crystals good for us?
nothing really, but i can tell you how they form. Answer: Crystals usually form from molten rock as the molten rock gradually cools. If the molten rock cools very rapidly, then either small crystals form or no crystals form. An example of this is when lava is ejected from a volcano. If molten rock cools slowly, then large crystals can form. This happens usually when the molten material is very deep in the Earth. Examples of these types of crystals are diamonds, emeralds, rubies, etc. Crystals can also form when water evaporates. For example, salt crystals (sodium chloride) form when salt water evaporates. The smooth faces of crystals are caused by a regular internal arrangement of atoms.
Why do some igneous rocks have big crystals or grains and some igneous rocks have small crystals or grains?
how long they stayed in the volcano; how much time the crystals had to form
What affects the size of crystals formed from magma?
The rate at which the magma cools affects the size of the crystals that form. If it cools slowly, large crystals will form. If it cools rapidly, small crystals will form.if it takes the rock a long time to cool down the crystals will be bigger if the rock takes a short time to cool the crystals will be smaller
Salt and vinegar crystals?
they are the cristals which form when vinegar is left for a long time.
