When Sedimentary rocks melt what kind of rock is formed?
when sedimentary melts the heat squeezes the rock then it becomes a metamorphic rock.
How can sedimentary rock be changed into a new sedimentary rock?
When a sedimentary rock is weathered or eroded, it becomes sediments, or small pieces of rock. Then the sediments are compacted together and they are formed into a new sedimentary rock. I hope my answer was helpful to you.
What is the rock called that is formed from molten rock?
The rock formed from molten rock is IGNEOUS
What types of sedimentary rocks are there?
Physically/mechanically formed sedimentary rock, organically/biologically formed sedimentary rock, and chemically formed sedimentary rock.
What is a non-example of sedimentary rock?
== == A sedimentary rock is formed from sediments deposited by water on the bottom of rivers, lakes, and oceans. The sediments are pieces of earth that have eroded, or worn away and washed downstream into rivers, lakes, and oceans and then settled out. Therefore, a non-sedimentary rock is a rock that isn't sedimentary.
What type of rock is formed when molten rock cools and becomes soil?
igneous rock
When Sedimentary rocks melt what kind of rock is formed?
when sedimentary melts the heat squeezes the rock then it becomes a metamorphic rock.
What is the diffidence between an igneous rock and sedimentary rock?
An igneous rock is formed when molten rock solidifies. A sedimentary rock is formed when per-existing rocks are broken down by chemical and mechanical weathering and the debris is deposited and squashed together to solidify.

Classification of stones?
Igneous (formed from molten rock), metamorphic (formed from metamorphism of preexisting rock), sedimentary (formed from cementation or compaction of sediments, mineral precipitation, or organic material).
What rocks are formed from molten rock that has solidified?
Igneous rocks, which come in many different forms.
What are the 3 types of sedimentary?
Mechanically formed sedimentary rock , Chemically formed sedimentary rock and Organically formed sedimentary rock.
How are metamorphic and sedimentary igneous rocks formed?
Igneous- Formed from hot molten magmaSedimentary- formed from sediments piling up creating layersMetamorphic- Formed when intense heat AND pressure are applied to an igneous or sedimentary rock.
What is the rock called that is formed from molten rock?
The rock formed from molten rock is IGNEOUS
What can happen to a sedimentary rock once it's formed?
it can turn into molten rock it can be heated and pressured and turn into metamorphic it can weather and turn to sediments
