What else can I help you with?
Are minerals rocks?
No, rocks are at least two kinds of minerals.
Do minerals contain two or more types of rocks?
No. it is flipped a rock contains two or more types of minerals
What should you do if two rocks contain yellow minerals but you know they are different?
You can look at the streak, specific gravity, and if it have cleavage or not.
What rocks don't contain minerals?
most rocks from what i know contain minerals especially sedimentary rocks. and don't all rocks eventually become sedimentary rocks so really don't they all contain minerals to some extent :) hope it helped (by the way i am only a gcse student)
What two continents are rocks and minerals found on?
Rocks and minerals are found on every continent, not just two - they are found underneath the ocean as well.
Do igneous rocks contain primarily evaporites?
No, igneous rocks do not contain primarily evaporites. Igneous rocks form from the crystallization of molten rock (magma or lava) and are primarily composed of minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica. Evaporites, on the other hand, are sedimentary rocks formed from the evaporation of water, leaving behind minerals such as halite and gypsum. Thus, the two rock types originate from different geological processes.
What made rocks?
Rocks which are made of minerals can be made up of many minerals and they can also be made up of only one mineral. Generally rocks are made of two or more minerals
Most rocks are mixtures of two or more what?
Most rocks are mixtures of two or more minerals. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances that have a specific chemical composition and crystal structure. Rocks are formed from a combination of minerals through geological processes like cooling and solidification of molten materials.
Compared to felsic igneous rocks mafic igneous rocks contain greater amounts of?
Compared to felsic igneous rocks, mafic igneous rocks contain greater amounts of iron and magnesium, as well as higher concentrations of darker-colored minerals such as pyroxene and olivine. Felsic rocks, in contrast, are richer in silica and lighter-colored minerals like quartz and feldspar. This difference in mineral composition results in distinct physical properties and appearances between the two rock types.
Rocks are usually made of 2 or more?
Rocks are usually made of two or more minerals, which are naturally occurring, inorganic solids with a definite chemical composition and crystalline structure. These minerals combine in various proportions and arrangements to form different types of rocks, such as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Additionally, some rocks can also contain organic materials or mineraloids. The specific combination of minerals determines the rock's characteristics and properties.
What should you do if two rocks contain yellow minerals but you know they are different minerals?
You should perform a scratch test or a streak test to help identify the different minerals. Additionally, you can use a hand lens to examine the crystals and mineral structure of each rock to further differentiate the minerals. It may also be helpful to consult a mineral identification guide or seek assistance from a professional geologist.
What Two types of rocks that have no minerals?
Volcanic glasses have no crystalline structure, and technically no minerals.
