Do Igneous rocks change into sedimentary rocks?
Normally when sedimentary rocks are squashed and heated they do indeed change, they become metamorphic rocks. e.g. mud will be turned into slate - limestone into marble etc.As the metamorphic temperature and pressure increase still further, most sedimentary rocks end up as Granulites or Banded Gneisses which look very much like igneous rocks (Granites).In the extreme, sedimentary rocks can melt, and these melts will form new magmas which will eventually harden to form new igneous rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks are harder than igneous rocks?
No, igneous rocks are harder than sedimentary rocks on average.
What type of rocks change into igneous rock?
I know one of them...Sedimentary hope i helped... =) All 3 are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
How do igneous rocks from into a sedimentary rock?
igneous rocks mix with metamorphic rocks and they combine together to make a sedimentary rock. the three themes of science rocks are metamorphic,igneous, and sedimentary.
Can any type of rock change?
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks?
The rock cycle
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rock to sedimentary rocks?
Denudation, Weathering, Erosion, Diagnesis.
How the igneous rocks change?
Igneous rocks change to Metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure. Igneous rocks change to sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion until the igneous rock is sediments. The sediments then compact to form sedimentary rocks.
When igneous and sedimentary rocks change then what happened next?
they change into metamorphic rocks
What are the processes of the major rocks?
Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Sedimentary Rock
How do rocks change from metamorphic or sedimentary rocks to igneous rocks?
By melting and then solidifying.
What is required to change an igneous rock into a sedimentary rock?
Igneous rocks are a "finished product". They do not become sedimentary rock - though sedimentary rocks, with heat and pressure can become metamorphic rocks.

What can make Sedimentary Rocks and Igneous Rocks change into Metamorphic Rocks?
heat and pressure.
What processes take place when igneous rocks are changed to sedimentary?
compacting and cementing
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
What kinds of rocks can be change into metamorphic rocks?
Many kinds of rocks both of igneous and sedimentary nature eg; Limestone (sedimentary ) to marble or granite or diorite (igneous) to gneiss.
