How do clastic rocks differ from non clastic rocks in terms of process of formation?
Clastic rocks are composed of broken pieces of older rocks that have been broken up by the process of weathering and are therefore sedimentary in nature. The "clasts" (bits of older rock) may vary in size.
What do clastic and chemical rocks have in common?
They are rocks.

How do geologist classify sedimentary rocks?
They are classified as clastic or non-clastic. Clastic sedimentary rocks are formed from rock particles of various sizes. Non-clastic rocks are formed from precipitation of minerals out of solution or by the lithification of organic matter.
How are clastic rocks grouped?
Clastic rocks are grouped based on the size of the grains of sediment contained within them.
What are the three categories of sedimentary rocks?
Clastic Rocks, Organic Rocks, and Chemical Rock
