It is not possible to correctly answer you question. You would have to know what material(s) the rock is made of, and how much of each material it contains. Then it could be calculated as an approximation.

What rock is made up of carbon atoms?

Diamond is a rock made up of carbon atoms. Its structure is a repeating pattern of carbon atoms bonded together in a strong, three-dimensional network.


Why are diamond so hard s so hard?

because many carbon atoms were crushed under many layers of rock for millions of years.


How is it possible for you to tell if atoms in one rock are vibrating faster than the atoms in another rock?

Simply put, accurately take their temperatures. The warmer, the faster.


Are atoms and molecules that make up a rock never moving?

Atoms and molecules that make up a rock are constantly moving, though at a very small scale. They vibrate in place due to thermal energy, even in solid objects like rocks. This movement is known as thermal motion and is responsible for the overall stability and properties of the rock.


What are the types of atoms in a pumice rock?

Pumice rock is primarily composed of silica (silicon dioxide) with traces of other elements such as aluminum, potassium, sodium, and iron. These atoms combine to form the unique porous and lightweight structure of pumice.


Why can the chemical composition of rock be changed during metamorphism?

It is an open system; atoms can move into and out of the rock.


Is a rock made of atoms?

Well, rocks are made up of minerals, and minerals are made up of elements and compounds, or molecules. And beyond that is the atom, the basic building block of everything, really. Does that answer your question?


What is the volume in a solid?

This completely depends on the atoms in the rock and density.


When rock breaks does the atoms split?

No, it is impossible to split atoms unless you use high-tech lab gear.


what is Something made of atoms that was never alive?

An IPhone is something made of atoms that was never alive. Also, a rock.


What is a regular repeating arrangement of atoms within a rock called?

A regular repeating arrangement of atoms within a rock is called a crystal lattice. This lattice gives crystals their characteristic shape and internal structure, which can be seen under a microscope or macroscopically.


When scientists measure the ratio of unstable atoms to stable atoms in a sample of rock what are they trying to determine?

Scientists are trying to determine the age of the rock using radiometric dating. By measuring the ratio of unstable atoms (parent isotopes) to stable atoms (daughter isotopes) in the rock sample, they can calculate how much time has passed since the rock formed or underwent a geological event.
