It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.
What else can I help you with?
When heat and pressure is applied to any rock it becomes what?
It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.
What makes a sedimentary or igneous rock form to a metamorphic rock?
heat and pressure is applied to the rock and it becomes a metamorphic rock.
What is rock formrd by heat or pressure?
Rock formed by heat and pressure becomes transformed and altered, such rock is called Metamorphic Rock.
What happens to sandstone when heat and pressure are applied?
When heat and pressure are applied to sandstone, the grains of sand compress and fuse together, leading to recrystallization of minerals and the formation of a new rock called quartzite. This process results in the sandstone becoming more compact, harder, and more durable.
What metamorphic rock becomes under heat and pressure?
this is called a ingneous rock
Which type of rock forms when exteme heat and pressure is applied?
Heat and pressure causes Metamorphic Rocks to form.
What rock comes after granite Is subjected to enough heat and pressure in the rock cycle?
When granite is subjected to enough heat and pressure, it becomes a metamorphic rock called gneiss.
When limestone is changed it becomes what type of rock?
When limestone goes through heat and pressure, it becomes the metamorphic rock marble.
When granite is changed by heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
gneiss
In the rock cycle a rock that is changed by heat and pressure becomes a what?
A rock that is changed by heat and pressure becomes a metamorphic rock. This process usually occurs deep within the Earth's crust where temperature and pressure are high enough to alter the mineral composition and structure of the rock. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
How could metamorphic rock become a sedimentary rock?
When sedimentary rock undergoes enough heat and pressure, it becomes metamorphic rock. A classic example of this is when shale becomes slate.
What metamorphic rock does chalk turn into after heat and pressure?
Chalk, which is a sedimentary rock made of calcium carbonate, typically transforms into marble under heat and pressure. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone or dolostone.
