What else can I help you with?
Which rock was probably was changed into marble by the addition of heat and pressure?
Limestone was probably metamorphed into marble.
What does marble metemorphosize from?
Limestone/chalk. Limestone has been subjected to heat and/or pressure, it metamorposes into marble. Both limestone and marble are calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Its just that the internal physical structure of limestone is altered.
Is marble polished limestone?
No. Marble is metamorphosed limestone, recrystallized from heat, pressure, or both.
Does limestone become sandstone when heated?
No. Limestone changes to Marble when it undergoes intense heat and pressure.
What does limestone change into when under heat?
Cao + C02
How does limestone form into marble?
pressure, heat, time
What metamorphic rock does limestone turn into after heat and pressure?
Limestone typically turns into marble when subjected to heat and pressure. Marble is a metamorphic rock with a finer texture and often exhibits a wider range of colors than limestone.
Why might limestone not be able to survive a fire?
the heat from a fire actually morphs the limestone into a different kind of rock
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure, it metamorphoses into a rock called marble. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when the calcite crystals in limestone recrystallize and interlock.
What was marble before it was altered by heat and pressure?
Marble was originally limestone, a sedimentary rock made primarily of calcite minerals from the remains of marine organisms. Heat and pressure from geological processes turned the limestone into marble through the process of metamorphism.
If you heat limestone what gas is given off?
bob the builder
Why does limestone and marble have different textures?
the amount of heat and pressure
