Why glass is called a super cooled liquid?

The definition of glass is a super cooled liquid. Any liquid that is super cooled takes on the properties of glass. Glass as you think of it is just super cooled silica. What happens is that it is cooled so quickly that it doesn't actually undergo a phase change back to a solid. In reality glass is just an incredibly slow moving liquid.


What is an igneous rock that cooled very quickly called?

An igneous rock that cooled very quickly is called a volcanic glass, such as obsidian. These rocks lack a crystalline structure due to rapid cooling, resulting in a more glass-like texture. Their composition is similar to that of other igneous rocks but with a characteristic lack of defined mineral grains.


Why are meteors called shooting stars?

Because that's what they look like - like a quickly-moving star, that disappears after a second or a few seconds.


What does obsidain's glassy texture indicate about how magma cooled?

Obsidian's glassy texture indicates that the magma cooled rapidly, preventing crystallization of minerals. This rapid cooling does not allow enough time for the minerals to form and grow, resulting in the formation of an amorphous, glass-like rock.


Is it true that when a liquid is cooled very quickly it always forms a crystal?

No, it is not true that a liquid always forms a crystal when cooled very quickly. Rapid cooling can lead to the formation of an amorphous solid or glass instead of a crystalline structure, as the atoms do not have enough time to arrange themselves into an ordered pattern. This phenomenon is common in materials like glass and some polymers. Crystallization often requires slower cooling to allow for the necessary atomic arrangement.
