What else can I help you with?
Is earth one solid piece or is it broken up int pieces?
It is broken up into pieces called tectonic plates
Why are teeth not a a mineral?
Teeth are not a mineral because they aren't a solid, they are small pieces of calcium. Also they need to have a crystalline structure
What is found in a sedimentary rock?
the solid material sattles at the bottom of a liquid is called sedimentary rock example when there is rain the small pieces of clay,gravel flow to river and streams etc there pieces are hardened and form sedimentry rock
How does a iceberg exist?
An iceberg forms when a large chunk of ice breaks off from a glacier or an ice shelf, a process known as calving. As the ice detaches, it floats in the ocean, with approximately 90% of its mass submerged underwater. Icebergs primarily exist in polar regions, where the cold temperatures allow them to maintain their solid form. Over time, they can drift and melt due to warmer ocean temperatures and exposure to sunlight.
What Heat pressure and hot watery fluids applied to solid rock change it into what rock?
Heat, pressure, and hot watery fluids can transform solid rock into metamorphic rock through a process called metamorphism. This process alters the mineral composition and texture of the original rock, known as the parent rock or protolith. Common examples of metamorphic rocks include schist, gneiss, and marble, which originate from shale, granite, and limestone, respectively.
is Pieces of dry ice solid carbon dioxide become smaller through the process of condensation?
No, dry ice sublimes rather than condenses. It changes directly from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid state. So, dry ice pieces become smaller as they sublime into carbon dioxide gas.
How does dividing a solid into smaller pieces affect surface area?
It increases it.
What process occurs as pieces of dry ice gets smaller?
Sublimation which is the change in state from a solid directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state.
Name the process where a solid breaks down in a liquid?
Dissolving?
How does solid rock break into smaller pices?
Solid rock breaks into smaller pieces primarily through processes like weathering and erosion. Weathering can be mechanical, such as freeze-thaw cycles that cause cracks, or chemical, where reactions alter the rock's composition. Erosion involves the movement of these smaller fragments by wind, water, or ice, further breaking them down. Over time, this continuous cycle results in the fragmentation of solid rock into smaller particles.
When a solid dissolves in liquid where does it go?
it doesnt go anywhere. The solid breaks up in really small pieces, and mixes with the liquid.
Can you say Weathering is the process of erosion or like erosion?
No. They are separate processes. Weathering -chemical and physical breaks down solid rock into smaller particles and prepares it for transportation or erosion.
A large sample of solid calcium sulfate is crushed into smaller pieces for testing Which two physical properties are the same for both the large sample and one of the smaller pieces?
The density and chemical composition of both the large sample and a smaller piece of solid calcium sulfate are the same.
What process break solid rock into smaller?
Erosion Construction
What statement is best to explain the process results in weathering?
Weathering is the process where rocks and minerals are broken down into smaller pieces through various physical, chemical, or biological processes. These smaller pieces can then be further eroded and transported by natural forces like wind, water, or ice. Over time, weathering can transform solid rock into sediment and contribute to the formation of soil.
What happens when amorphous solid breaks?
If you break a solid, the atoms will seperate from eachother
How does solid rock break into smaller pieces?
Solid rocks break into smaller pieces because weathering could take bits and pieces of the rock. Then erosion carries the rock to some were else. Finally deposition will drop the rock in that place were the erosion brought it.
