What m described rocks that were formed when existing rocks were heated or squashed?
Metamorphic rock. This can naturally form an existing Sedimentary, Igneous or Metamorphic rock due to exposure to heat and/or pressure.
What else can I help you with?
When copper is heated in oxygen the compound formed is?
When copper is heated in oxygen, the compound formed is copper oxide.
What is the name of the compound formed when magnesium and sulfur are heated?
The compound formed when magnesium and sulfur are heated is magnesium sulfide (MgS).
What kind of metamorphic rock is formed where rocks have been heated but not deformed?
A metamorphic rock formed where rocks have been heated but not deformed is called a contact metamorphic rock. This type of rock forms when existing rocks are altered by the heat from nearby magma without experiencing significant pressure or deformation. Examples include hornfels and marble.
What is formed when magnesium is heated?
When magnesium is heated, it reacts with oxygen in the air to form magnesium oxide. This process is a combustion reaction, where magnesium burns in the presence of oxygen to produce magnesium oxide as a white powdery residue.
What is a leading theory for the formation of fossil fuels?
Organic matter was compressed and heated
How is garnet mica formed?
A Mica Garnet schist is a metamorphic rock formed from a shale or a granitic mother rock when this is squashed and heated at death in the crust.
What M describes rocks that were formed when existing rocks were heated or squashed?
Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks are subjected to high heat and pressure, causing them to recrystallize into new forms without melting. This process typically occurs deep within the Earth's crust or mantle.
What does slate turn into if its heated and squashed?
phyllite
What does slate turn into if heated and squashed?
If slate is sufficiently heated and compressed it becomes phyllite.
What does slate tun into if heated and squashed even more?
Gneiss.
What s does slate turn into if heated and squashed?
Slate is already a metamorpic rock. It is formed by the action of heat and pressure on shale. Further metamorphism may produce phyllite.
Two products formed when limestone is heated?
quicklime is formed when lmesone is heated
Metamorphic rocks can only be formed from?
Metamorphic rocks can be formed from any pre-existing rock type (igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks) that undergoes intense heat, pressure, or chemical changes without melting. This process causes the minerals in the rock to recrystallize and reorganize, resulting in a new metamorphic rock with different properties.
When copper is heated in oxygen the compound formed is?
When copper is heated in oxygen, the compound formed is copper oxide.
How is garnet is formed?
A Mica Garnet schist is a metamorphic rock formed from a shale or a granitic mother rock when this is squashed and heated at death in the crust.
When iron is heated with sulphur iron sulphide is formed. give the name or the solid formed when zinc is heated with sulphur?
The solid formed when zinc is heated with sulfur is zinc sulfide.
What type of rocks are formed from existing rocks that have been squeezed and heated up deep inside Earth's crust?
The type of rocks formed from existing rocks that have been squeezed and heated deep inside Earth's crust are called metamorphic rocks. This transformation occurs through a process known as metamorphism, which alters the mineral composition and structure of the original rocks, known as parent rocks. Common examples of metamorphic rocks include schist, gneiss, and marble.
