How do volcanoes make crystals?
As molten rock cools and solidifies the chemical components arrange into organized structures on the molecular level. These are crystals.
Does basalt have small crystals or big?
Since basalt is extrusive it cools quickly and forms small crystals.
When lava cools quickly large crystal form?
No. Small crystals form.
When lava cools quickly the minerals within it form small crystals?
its not really a question...
Why does rapid cooling of a saturated solution produce small crystals and slow cooling produce big crystals?
When the liquid evaporates quickly, the solid crystals formed don't have enough time to arrange themselves into large crystals. On the other hand, when it evaporates slowly, the solid has lots of time so large crystals form. This can be demonstrated by dripping melted was onto a cold slide and a warm slide and examining them under a microscope.
Magma cools slowly atoms cant arrange into crystals?
IF the magma cools slowly witin Earths eated interior the atoms have time 2 arrange themselves into large crystals!
Why don't crystals always form in extrusive rocks?
In some cases the molten rock cools too quickly for the atoms to arrange themselves into a crystalline structure.
If magma cools slowly do atoms have time to arrange themselves into large crystals?
False: they do have time 2 for large crystals 2 be made
Lava that cools so quickly that ions do not have time to arrange into crystals will form igneous rocks with a?
glassy texture
If magma cools slowly atoms do not have time to arrange themselves into large crystals?
False they have all the time in the wrold to form

Why do some igneous rocks have large crystals while others have small crystals or no crystals?
Mostly, it depends on cooling time. If a rock cools very rapidly, a smooth texture is formed as the atoms quickly arrange themselves into a fairly smooth crystalline pattern. Think of obsidian; it cools very fast and has such small crystals looks like black warped glass. However, if a rock was formed below the Earth's surface (intrusively) like in a pluton, it will cool more slowly and will be rougher and have larger crystals.
Andesite has small crystals because?
Andesite has small crystals because it cools quickly.
What does lava that cools quickly form?
fast cooling lava -small crystals or no crystals
What lava that cools quickly form?
fast cooling lava -small crystals or no crystals
If the lava cools quickly the crystal are what?
If lava cools quickly, the minerals don't have as much time to form crystals, so the crystals do not become very large. Igneous rocks that cooled quickly and have small crystals are described as "aphanitic" igneous rocks.
What size are the crystals in an igneous rock that cools quickly?
Small
