How does Sedimentary rocks change to igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
What rock gets hot enough to melt when it is forming?
Igneous rock such as granite and basalt can melt under high temperatures when forming. This molten rock, or magma, can then cool and solidify to form igneous rocks.
How does metamorphic rock turn into another type of rock?
Metamorphic rock can turn into another type of rock through processes like weathering and erosion, which break down the rock into sediment. This sediment can then undergo compaction and cementation to form sedimentary rock, or melt and cool to form igneous rock through processes like metamorphism.
What rock is created when minerals melt?
When minerals melt, they can form an igneous rock called granite. Granite is typically composed of quartz, feldspar, and mica minerals that solidify from a molten state, either deep underground or at the Earth's surface.
Why metamorphic rock will form neither synthetically nor naturally if the temperature is too high?
If the temperature is too high, the rock will melt into magma and form igneous rock instead of metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks form under high pressure and temperature conditions, but if the temperature becomes too high, the rock will not be able to maintain its solid state and will melt.
Is it possible for a man to melt and harden into rock?
No. Human tissue will burn rather than melt and will not form rock.
How does igneous rock change to metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
Does magma form when rock begins to melt?
Yes. Magma is underground molten rock.
What rock families can form magma if hot enough?
All the three existing rock families/types/classes (ie, igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks) can form magma, if they become hot enough to melt and change to molten form.
Does sedimentary rock form igneous rock?
Yes it can form an igneous rocks as because of pressure it may melt and form into igneous rocks.
Can metamorphic rock melt to form sedimentary rock?
No. If a rock melts and then re-solidifies, then by definition the resulting rock is igneous.
How do volcanoes change earths landforms?
They melt objects and later hardens into igneous rock
How does Sedimentary rocks change to igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
How metamorphic rock change into igneous rock?
it has to be melted and then has to re-solidify. Heat (lots of it) to melt the rock is what is needed.
What can a igneous rock may change into?
Igneous rocks can change into metamorphic rocks from great heat and pressure as all other rocks can, melt into magma, the molten rock, and erode into sediment, which are rock fragments.
How does metamorphic change to igneous?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
What can heat and pressure deep beneath Earth's surface change any rock into?
Some form of metamorphic rock would result; if the temperatures are high enough, the rock could partially or completely melt, resulting in magma.
