How is snow transformed into glacial ice?
Snow is transformed into glacial ice by time and pressure. If the glacier and the snow on top never melts, it continually becomes more compact.
How does glacial ice differ from regular ice?
Glacial ice is much more solid then regular ice. Glacial ice is also alot colder than regular ice. Glacial ice can also be up to 1/2 a mile thick. Glaciation is aan extremly powerful force. 2. Glaciation happend very recently in geologic terms and there has not been enough time for the glacial features to be worn away.
Are Brittle rocks are more likely to fold then fault?

Boulders carried many miles by a glacier are called?
Boulders that have been carried by a glacier have a couple names, but most commonly they are referred to as glacial boulders or erratics. If you're interested in learning more about glacial boulders, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources has a pretty good article about them; as Iowa and most of the American Midwest were covered by glaciers during the last Ice Age, glacial boulders are fairly common there. http://www.igsb.uiowa.edu/browse/boulders/boulders.htm
Was there an ice age around 1600BC?

Which is more conductive between glacial acetic acid and 6 M acetic acid?
Conductivity of glacial Ac.ac. is lower, because there are (almost) none free protons. To get them 'free' to conduct some water is needed.
What is a sharp pyramid-shaped peak that forms when three or more cirques erode a mountain?
Glacial horn
Which glacial landforms require more than one glacier to form?
aretes,hanging valleys,horns,and drumlins
Difference between 0.1 M acetic acid and glacial acetic acid?
Glacial acetic acid doesn't have water in it. Acetic acid ordinarily would be in a solution. Acetic acid is a weak acid, but it can be very concentrated. Glacial acetic acid is a acetic acid of a high purity more then 99.75 %
What was true about child laborers?
