Is sea water a mineral?
no , sea water is not a mineral .
When heated mineral-rich water seeps into cracks in the Earth cools and crystallizes as minerals an can form what?
A vien
Rock salt crystallizes from what mineral?
Rock salt crystallizes from halite, which is a mineral form of sodium chloride commonly found in sedimentary rocks.
What is formed from dissolved substances in sea water that stick to solid objects?
saturated salt dissolved in sea-water crystallizes on any surface. this substance is known as brine
Rock salt crystallizes from the mineral?
People commonly refer to the mineral halite (NaCl = sodium chloride) as rock salt. Rock salt is formed by the continuous evaporation of sea water. In the sequence of minerals precipitating out of the water halite comes after gypsum and anhydrite (calcium sulphate minerals) and before the rarer types of chlorides like potassium chloride.
How does sea weed get mineral salts?
These salts are absorbed from the sea water.
What mineral crystallizes last and is most resistant to weathering?
Zircon is the mineral that typically crystallizes last in igneous rocks and is known for its resistance to weathering. It has a high melting point and is chemically stable, making it a durable mineral that can persist long after other minerals have weathered away.
What mineral crystallizes at the highest temperature?
The mineral with the highest known melting point is tungsten, which has a melting point of 3,422 degrees Celsius.
What is the saltiest and most mineral-rich body of water?
salt water is found in the sea. Saltwater can also be called brine.
How cold would the sea water be in Antarctica?
Sea water remains liquid down to about 27 degrees F, based on the amount of mineral in the liquid water.
What mineral preceipates when about 80 percent of the sea water has evaporated?
Sea water contains sodium chloride as its main mineral although it also contains several other minerals in minute amount relative to NaCl. When sea water evaporates the main precipitate left behind is that of NaCl (sodium chloride)
Is Water in a sea is usually fresh.?
Never. Sea water contains all of the mineral salts dissoved out of rocks, both by sea water and, indirectly, by rivers. The sea is a store of such slats and these mean the water can never be considered pure. Fresh water is water that contains virtually no salts.
