A sugar cube looks like a sedimentary rock because, it has small and tiny particals such as those tiny crystals you see in a sugar cube. A sedimentary rock on the other hand, is composed of small sediments, like a sugar cube is composed of small particals and crystals.

A geode might have minerals in it, but that doesn't make it a mineral itself.


How can you tell if a rock made of small grains is igneou or sedimentary?

Look for signs of banding or layering that would be evidence of sedimentary strata. Banding also occurs in metamorphic rocks, but the bands may be very distinct in color from one another. If the rock scratches with a knife, it may be sedimentary. High silica content in some igneous rocks may prevent scratching with a knife blade.


How can you freeze a penny in an ice cube?

By Laura. J. Duthie xx ------- If you do that, the penny will sink to the bottom. To make it look like the penny is suspended in the cube, do this: Fill a space in the ice cube tray (glass, whatever) half full of water, put it in the freezer. In an hour or so it will begin to freeze; it will get a crispy layer of ice on top. Put the penny on this layer, fill with COLD water (hot will melt the forming ice). Put it back in the freezer. - Kate_mc ------
