It depends on the rock. Different minerals have different melting points.

What rock is formed when sandstone is exposed to heat and pressure?
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)
Can lava melt rock in the mountain?
Underground molten rock, called magma, does melt some of the surrounding rock.
Explain why chocolate melt but rock does not?
Chocolate can melt faster, because chocolate less force on them. and the other hand the rock has more force holding it's particles together so that means that the chocolate can melt faster than the rock. by the way the rock can melt, but it needs a high temp.
What must happen to a rock for it to become a metamorphic rock?
It must melt.
How long does a a 1inch cube of ice take to melt with one spoon of mineral rock salt?
rock salt dose not melt salt
Does rock candy melt in room temperature?
No. If it did then it would melt in your hand. Rock candy is made mostly of sucrose, which does not melt but breaks down at 367 degrees Fahrenheit.
What rock is formed when sandstone is exposed to heat and pressure?
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)
What happens when minerals in igneous metamorphic and sedimentary rock melt?
The rocks will melt when they reach the proper temperature, usually thousands of degrees.
How do melt rock?
There are three ways to melt rock to form lavas. You can use decompression, add volatiles, or conduction. All you need to do is use these strategies to get the rock to its melting point.
What rock is created when minerals melt?
No rock is created when minerals melt. Igneous rock is formed when molten rock solidifies.
Can lava melt rock in the mountain?
Underground molten rock, called magma, does melt some of the surrounding rock.
Can anything melt a rock?
Substantial heat, whether produced by humans or naturally occurring, can melt rock.
What temperature makes a rock melt?
It depends on the type of rock and how much water is trapped in the mineral structure. Melting points of common igneous rocks range from about 1,200 to about 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
Is it possible for a man to melt and harden into rock?
No. Human tissue will burn rather than melt and will not form rock.
Explain why chocolate melt but rock does not?
Chocolate can melt faster, because chocolate less force on them. and the other hand the rock has more force holding it's particles together so that means that the chocolate can melt faster than the rock. by the way the rock can melt, but it needs a high temp.
How does igneous rock change to metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
Do chemicals melts Rock?
Strong acids can melt many types of rock, even plain water erodes the hardest rock if given enough time.
