What mass of carbon dioxide would be produced when 2.00g of limestone is heated?
0.88g of Carbon dioxide. For every 100g of limestone heated, 44g of CO2 and 56g of CaO are produced.
Which of the following rocks would most likely contain a fossil sandstone granite marble or basalt?
Limestone
In which type of rock metamorphism is heat the dominant factor?
They would be referred to as contact metamorphic rocks.
What type of metamorphic rock would be produced by sand?
Silica sand would first lithify into sandstone. It could then undergo metamorphism through heat and pressure and form the metamorphic rock quartzite.
If limestone was crushed what would it do to the rate of reaction between an acid and the limestone?
If the limestone was crushed the reaction would speed up because the limestone would have a larger surface area available to react with the acid.
Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism between them?
shale and sandstone
What mass of carbon dioxide would be produced when 2.00g of limestone is heated?
0.88g of Carbon dioxide. For every 100g of limestone heated, 44g of CO2 and 56g of CaO are produced.
What would be the most likely next step for a rock on the surface of the earth in the rock cycle?
Metamorphism?
Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism?
shale and sandstone
What waste is produced by extracting limestone?
Very little waste is produced during the extraction of limestone. Waste would include carbon monoxide and other pollutants from machinery exhaust, along with used tires.
How long does it take to turn limestone into marble?
Marble is a metamorphic rock with a parent rock of limestone or dolostone and is formed by natural processes by heat and pressure. The heat may be derived by proximity to a magmatic intrusion or from depth of burial.
In which setting would regional metamorphism be most likely?
eight kilometers below the earth's surface
In which type of rock would you mostly likely find fossil?
Sedimentary.
Would contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism be a product of 2 plates colliding?
Two plates colliding will generate both regional and contact metamorphism. The point of contact would have contact metamorphism while surrounding parts would be regionally metamophrsed.
What is the very hard sedimentary rock found in beds of limestone?
Most likely, it would be chert.
Which characteristic would most likely remain constant when a limestone is subjected to extensive abrasion?
Composition would remain constant.
Which of the following rocks would most likely contain a fossil sandstone granite marble or basalt?
Limestone
