What else can I help you with?
Are sand pebbles water and plaster mixed together an igneous metamorphic or sedimentary rock?
At this point they are none of the above. They are sediment. If lithified they will form sedimentary rock.
How does sedimentary make sedimentary rock?
Sedimentary rock is formed when sediments are cemented together due to heat and/or pressure.
Why must water evaporate or be pressed out for sedimentary rock form?
The expulsion of fluids which occupy the pore spaces in sediments gives way to the precipitation of solid minerals which bind the sedimentary particles together into rock.
What kind of sedimentary rock is formed when mineral solutions evaporate?
Evaporites are sedimentary rocks formed when mineral solutions evaporate, leaving behind salts and minerals that precipitate and accumulate. Common examples of evaporites include rock salt, gypsum, and halite.
How does a Sedimentary rock to an igneous rock?
The sedimentary rocks would have to melt and cool again to make an igneous rock.
What is the type of sedimentary rock that forms by precipitation of minerals out of water?
Halite and Gypsum, they are called Evaporites and are both rocks and minerals
What are clasts?
Clasts are individual pieces of rock or mineral fragments that make up a sedimentary rock. They can vary in size and shape, ranging from tiny grains to large boulders, and are important in determining the characteristics and composition of the sedimentary rock.
Is organic rock a type of sedimentary rock?
ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK`s : Is a type of sedimentary rock because sedimentary rock has three types of sedimentary rock called clastic , chemical , and organic sedimentary rock so yes ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK is a type of sedimentary rock..........................................
What rock helps make metamorphic and sedimentary rocks?
Igneous rock.
What kind of rock can sandstones be classified as?
Clastic sedimentary rock.
Why must water evaporate or be pressed out for sedimentary rock to form?
Water must evaporate or be pressed out from sediment for sedimentary rock to form because it helps to compact the sediment particles together. When water is removed, the sediment grains can come in closer contact and cement together, forming solid rock over time. Without the removal of water, the sediment would remain loose and not transform into rock.
When seas or lake evaporate a type of sedimentary rock called?
When seas or lakes evaporate, a type of sedimentary rock called evaporite forms. Evaporites are created through the precipitation of minerals as water evaporates, leaving behind salts and other minerals. Common examples of evaporite rocks include rock salt (halite) and gypsum. These rocks often indicate past environments where significant evaporation occurred.
