What else can I help you with?
Are sedimentary rocks chemically weathered?
Sedimentary rocks can be both chemically and mechanically weathered.
What happens when sedimentary rocks are physically and chemically changed?
When sedimentary rocks are physically changed, their size and shape may be altered through processes like weathering and erosion. When they are chemically changed, minerals within the rocks may be dissolved or precipitated, leading to the formation of new minerals and the alteration of the rock's composition. Both physical and chemical changes can result in the transformation of sedimentary rocks into new rock types through processes like metamorphism.
What Are Chemically Formed Sedimentary Rocks Formed From?
Chemically formed sedimentary rocks are formed from dissolved minerals that precipitate out of water through processes like evaporation or chemical reactions. Examples include rocks like limestone, rock salt, and gypsum.
Is eroded soil in sedimentary rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are by definition composed of little pieces of eroded rocks. So, yes!
Are sedimentary rocks changed by underground pressure?
no
How can metamorphic rocks be changed into sedimentary rocks?
It can be changed by being broken down in the weathering process just like all rocks. The resulting sediment can then be lithified to for a sedimentary rock.
How do sedimentary rocks go from the sea bed to be turned into metamorphic?
sedimentary rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks by the use of pressure and/or heat
How are metamorphic rocks igneous rock and sedimentary rocks different?
Metamorphic rocks originate as igneous and sedimentary rocks, but have been changed by heat and pressure.
What are three ways sedimentary rocks can form?
Biologically, Chemically and Mechanically.
What are ways sedimentary rocks can form?
1. Organically. 2. Mechanically. and 3. Chemically.
What causes sedimentary and igneous rocks to change?
Sedimentary rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure, while igneous rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks through the same process. Both types of rocks can also be weathered and eroded, leading to the formation of new sedimentary rocks.
What rocks can be changed to metamorphic rocks?
Sedimentary,and Igneous.Metamorphic can change to either one of those.
