Why does bubbling occurs when when vinegar is mixed with baking soda?

The bubbles that form when you mix vinegar and baking soda is a chemical reaction. the bubbles that come out of soda is just escaped carbon dioxide. - - - - - While that's true, both bubbles are carbon dioxide. And if you get some real fancy "gourmet" root beer, its bubbles are formed by putting yeast in the root beer and letting it work.


What is a very light igneous rock containing air bubbles?

Pumice is a very light igneous rock that contains numerous air bubbles. It is formed during volcanic eruptions when frothy lava cools rapidly, trapping gas bubbles within the rock's structure.


What is the term describing igneous rock openings produced by escaping gases?

The term is vesicles. These are small cavities or voids in igneous rocks formed by gas bubbles escaping as the magma cools and solidifies.

What are vesicles in an igneous rock?

Vesicles are small cavities or bubbles found within igneous rocks that are formed by gas bubbles trapped during the solidification of molten rock. These vesicles can vary in size and shape, and often become filled with minerals or other materials later on. They are commonly found in volcanic rocks such as basalt.


Are thunder eggs sedimentary and igneous rocks?

Thunder eggs are technically both sedimentary and igneous rocks. They are formed when gas bubbles in volcanic lava solidify and are later filled with various minerals, such as quartz. So, they have characteristics of both sedimentary (formed through deposition) and igneous (formed through cooling of magma or lava) rocks.


What type of rock is a pumice rock?

Pumice is a type of igneous rock formed from volcanic eruptions. It is characterized by its porous and lightweight nature, caused by the rapid cooling of lava during volcanic explosions, which traps gas bubbles in the rock.


How egneous rocks are formed?

Igneous rocks are types of rocks that are formed by fire. They can be formed in the ground from magma that gets trapped in air pockets. Above ground they can form when lava cools along the ground.


Type of rock formed from molten rock?

Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.


How is the vesicular texture of an igneous rock formed?

A vesicular texture is one where there are small voids within the igneous rock. These tend to form in extrusive igneous rocks due to the loss of confining pressure which causes gasses dissolved in the molten material to come out of solution or exsolve. These gasses form bubbles within the cooling lava and can become trapped if the lava cools rapidly, leaving a permanent gas bubble or void space within the solidified igneous rock.


What is igneous rock formed from magma?

An igneous rock formed from magma is intrusive.


Why do some igneous rocks have bubbles or pores and are these rocks intrusive or extrusive?

The bubbles and pores are from trapped gasses which expanded in the molten material as it neared the surface. They're usually found in extrusive igneous rocks, those that have solidified in the air or on the surface.
