The term chemical rock is redundant, since all rocks, and all substances, are made of chemicals. Every rock is a chemical rock. Sedimentary rock is rock that is composed of solidified sediment, such as sandstone. Little pieces become cemented together to form rock.

Chemical
Are sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks chemical sedimentary rocks?
No. The rocks you describe are clastic or detrital sedimentary rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks classified tofoliated sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are classified by foliation or lack there of, not sedimentary rocks. They are classified into Clastic Sedimentary, and Chemical Sedimentary.
What are the two main types of sedimentary rocks?
Clastic (those formed of particles of other rocks) and non-clastic (organic and chemical precipitate or evaporite rocks).
How can sedimentary rocks can be classified?
sedimentary rocks can be classified by detrial, chemical ,or organic

What is the difference between eco-friendlly colors and chemical colors?
Organic sedimentary rocks are formed from the remains of plant and animal life. Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation of minerals in a solution.
What is the difference between detrital and chemical sedimentary rocks?
Detrital- made of sediment grains Orgains- Made of fossils Chemical- from due to chemical reactions I hope this helped you enough :)
What is the difference between clastic and chemical rocks?
Clastic: These rocks are composed predominantly of broken pieces of older weathered and eroded rocks Non-clastic/ Organic: A sedimentary rock composed of the remains of plants and animals.
What rocks are produced by chemical sedimentation?
Chemical sedimentary rocks such as chert and flint.
Chemocal sedimentary rocks are made from?
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed by the precipitation of minerals from water.
Are clastic rocks and organic rocks both sedimentary rocks?
Yes Sedimentary rocks also include a third type, chemical rocks -saf13
What are examples of biochemical sedimentary rocks and evaporates?
Biochemical sedimentary rocks: limestone, coal, chalk. Evaporative chemical sedimentary rocks: rock salt, gypsum.
