A mineral specimen has very small crystals what is the best explanation for how this happened?
It is likely that the mineral formed from molten lava on the Earth's surface. This is because it would have cooled very rapidly, so forming the small crystals.
How does alum affect paper?
Paper sheet having small undissolved alum crystals
Hard shiny crystals used in jewelry are called?
Dimonds
Why does alum make big crystals?
It's not that only alum makes big crystals.. There are so many compounds that can make big crystals. Even Sodium Hydroxide makes very good and big crystals. For crystals you need a uniform arrangement of atoms in space. For big crystals all you need is patience. The slower is the crystallization process the bigger crystals are formed. What industries do is called seeding. They make a good concentrated solution of the compound whose crystals are needed and then they put a crystal of the same compound in the solution. The new crystals form and attach to the crystal making quick and big crystals.
A rock with large crystals surrounded by small crystals is called?
porphyry
What are Igneous rocks that have large crystals and small crystals?

Andesite has small crystals because?
Andesite has small crystals because it cools quickly.
Do igneous rocks have small crystals large crystals or no crystals?
It depends on the type of igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks such as granite have large crystals, extrusive igneous rocks may have small crystals as in basalt or no crystals as in pumice.
Are large crystals found in diorite?
diorite crystals are large and andesite crystals are small
What is a rock with cyrstals surrounded by small crystals called?
Ah, a classic. It is porphyritic. The classic example is granite.
Why are mineral crystals in obsidian too small to see without a microscope?
The rock cools so rapidly from magma that crystals barely have time to form.
Does basalt have small crystals or big?
Since basalt is extrusive it cools quickly and forms small crystals.
What factor determines if an igneous rock has no crystals small crystals or large crystals?
it depends on the heat, if it cool very quick then it has small crystals but if it cool very slowly than it is bigger the slower the cooling period the bigger the crystals
