No, they vary from crystal to crystal.

Does crystals of a mineral come always in the same size?

The crystals will always form according the geometric parameters of the mineral crystal system to which they belong, but the size of the crystals varies depending on the environment in which they form.


The size of a mineral's crystals depends on which of the following?

The size of a mineral's crystals depends on factors such as the rate of cooling, the presence of impurities, and the availability of space to grow. Slower cooling rates typically result in larger crystals, while faster cooling rates produce smaller crystals. Impurities can impede crystal growth, while a lack of space can limit crystal size.


What determines the size of a mineral crystal formed from magma?

The cooling rate of the magma primarily determines the size of a mineral crystal. Faster cooling rates lead to smaller crystals, while slower cooling rates result in larger crystals. Other factors such as the mineral composition and level of nucleation can also influence crystal size.


What factor determine the size of crystals in metamorphic rocks?

Large mineral crystals that are all about the same size are formed from magma that cooled slowly inside the earth. Small mineral crystals (not identifiable without a microscope) formed from magma that cooled rapidly, on or near the surface of the earth.


What factor most influences the size of mineral crystals in igneous rocks?

The cooling rate of the magma is the factor that most influences the size of mineral crystals in igneous rocks. Slower cooling results in larger crystals, while faster cooling leads to smaller crystals.

Which is a factor that effects the size of mineral crystals formed in magma?

fluoresence is not a factor. I had this same question and i got fluorescence as a correct answer


Which is not a factor that effects the size of mineral crystals formed in magma?

The composition of the minerals is not a factor that affects the size of mineral crystals formed in magma. The factors that do affect crystal size include cooling rate, amount of water present, and amount of pressure.


The texture of an igneous rock depends on the size and the shape of its what?

Does igneous rock texture refers to size?

please anyone else can answer this question I'm in hurry pls.


What is rock texture?

Texture refers to the size and orientation of the mineral crystals or clasts contained within the rock.
