What are the three categories of sedimentary rocks?
The three categories of sedimentary rocks are clastic, chemical, and organic. Clastic rocks form from the accumulation of weathered rock fragments, chemical rocks form from the precipitation of minerals from water, and organic rocks form from the remains of living organisms.
The chemical breakdown of enormous quantities of organic material buried in the sedimentary rocks has produced what type of gas?
The chemical breakdown of enormous quantities of organic material buried in the sedimentary rocks has produced ethane gas.
Is rock organic?
Rock salt is a chemical sedimentary rock.
List three major groups of sedimentary rock?
Clastic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of mineral and rock fragments that are cemented together. Chemical sedimentary rocks: Formed from precipitation of minerals dissolved in water. Organic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of organic material, such as plants or animals.
How are detrital chemical and biochemical sedimentary rocks different?
Detrital rocks are composed of rock particles, chemical sedimentary rocks are composed of precipitated minerals.Examples:Detrital or clastic rocks:ConglomerateBrecciaSandstoneShaleChemical sedimentary rocks:Rock saltSome limestonesRock gypsumWhat_is_the_difference_between_detrital_and_chemical_sedimentary_rock
How are chemical and organic rocks classified?
Both organic sedimentary (like coal) and chemical sedimentary (like rock salt) rocks are not composed of particles of other rocks. They are different because organic rocks are composed of the remains of living things but chemical rocks are formed by inorganic processes such as evaporation.

What are the two main types of sedimentary rocks?
The two main types of sedimentary rocks are clastic (detrital) rocks, which are made of pre-existing rock fragments cemented together, and chemical rocks, which form from minerals that precipitate out of solution.
