You think probable to a shale.
What is a sedimentary rock containing methane?
Shale
What are chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons?
Hydrocarbons containing chlorine atoms are called chlorinated hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons containing fluorine atoms are called fluorinated hydrocarbons. eg> CHCl3, CHF3 etc
What are the main sub-categories Sedimentary Rock?
Detrital sedimentary rock Chemical sedimentary rock Biological sedimentary rock
How did the conglomerate rock begin?
It began as an aggregat of unconsolidated sediment containing pebbles of various rock types. Upon lithification, it became the sedimentary rock called conglomerate.

Is organic rock a type of sedimentary rock?
ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK`s : Is a type of sedimentary rock because sedimentary rock has three types of sedimentary rock called clastic , chemical , and organic sedimentary rock so yes ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK is a type of sedimentary rock..........................................

Which sedimentary rock has the coarsest grain flint or limestone or sandstone?
== == The "coarseness" of a sedimentary rock refers to the rock's textural character, and more particularly, the size of grains contained within it. Thus, a conglomerate containing pebble or cobble clasts is coarser than a sandstone containing sand grains. In the same way, a conglomerate containing boulders is coarser than a conglomerate containing pebbles. Clastic sedimentary rocks are classified using the Wentworth Scale. The coarsest elements of this scale are the Rudites. Boulder rudites are conglomeratic rocks with grains of diameter greater than 256mm. They are the coarsest element described on the Wentworth Scale. There is no upper limit to the scale of sedimentary coarseness, since the size of clast which can be preserved in a sedimentary rocks is potentially very large. 'Olistolith' is a term which describes very large clasts often derived from the sub-sea collapse of oversteepened slopes such as are found at continental margins. Sediments containing olistoliths may reasonably be described as the coarsest sedimentary rocks.
Is it possible for a sedimentary rock to be changed to become a new sedimentary rock?
Yes it is possible for a sedimentary rock to be changed into a different sedimentary rock.
Which type of rock forms when sediments become pressed and cemented together?
When cemented together, clastic sedimentary rock.
