What else can I help you with?
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms what substance?
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms magma.
If magma crystallizes before it reaches earths surface it will form a what igneous rock?
It will for an intrusive igneous rock. They usually take longer to cool and have more coarse grains.
Which type of rocks can turn into an igneous rock through the rock cycle?
A metamorphic rock can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Or, a sedimentary rock (or sediments) can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Also, an igneous rock itself can undergo this process of melting and cooling as well.
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.
If sedimentary rock melt and then cool they can form what type of rock?
If sedimentary rock melts and then cools, it can form igneous rock. This process involves the melting of the sedimentary rock due to high temperature and pressure, which leads to the formation of new igneous rock as it cools and solidifies.
What rock takes the longest time to cool of?
Igneous rocks that cool under the Earth's surface. They are called intrusive rocks.
Can igneous rock sink?
Old, cool igneous rock sinks.
As cool as what?
It becomes a Igneous rock.
How does a Sedimentary rock to an igneous rock?
The sedimentary rocks would have to melt and cool again to make an igneous rock.
What kind of rock is formed when melted minerals cool and harden?
Igneous rock is formed when melted minerals cool and harden. This process can happen either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rock) or on the surface (extrusive igneous rock). Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms what substance?
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms magma.
What rock is formed when magma and lava cool and harden?
Igneous Rock.
When molten rocks cool it becomes what kind of rock?
igneous rock.
What type of rock is formed by cool lava or magma?
An igneous rock is formed when magma cools and hardens. Some examples of igneous rocks are pumice and obsidian.
Which kind of igneous rocks form when magma cool slowly?
intrusive igneous rock
When a rock gets to the core does it turn into a igneous rock?
No, first it has to melt, then erupt, and then it has to cool down. When it solidifies completely, it becomes an igneous rock.
What rocks cool from magma or lava?
magma cools into intrusive igneous rock while lava into extrusive igneous rock
