What type of rock forms when heat and pressure change the structure texture or composition of sedimentary rock?
A "metamorphic" rock.
What Metamorphic rock forms as a result?
heat and pressure
What makes matter change forms?
Any type of reaction, really. You could add heat or remove heat (thermal energy) to cause the matter to change phase. Also pressure can compress the matter into a new form.
How often do rocks change from one form to another?
Rocks can change from one form to another through the process of the rock cycle, which involves the transformation of rocks through weathering, erosion, deposition, heat, and pressure. The rate at which rocks change forms depends on the specific conditions of their environment, but the rock cycle is a continuous process that can take millions of years to complete.
What forms when heat and pressure act on igneous rock?
Sedimentary Rocks.
What type of fuel forms when pressure and heat cause change in the remains of swamp plants?
Coal.
What is the process called when heat and pressure transform one type of rock into another?
The process is called metamorphism, where heat and pressure change one type of rock into another.
Where do Most metamorphic rock forms?
heat and pressure beneath Earth's surface can change a rock into metamorphic rock.
What type of rock forms when heat and pressure change the structure texture or composition of sedimentary rock?
A "metamorphic" rock.
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure it would likely change to?
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure, it would likely change to gneiss, a metamorphic rock. Gneiss forms through the recrystallization of minerals in granite under high temperature and pressure conditions.
Heat and pressure creates what rock?
Heat and pressure create metamorphic rock. This type of rock forms when existing rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure, causing their mineral composition and texture to change. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
Forms in metamorphic rock?
A metamorphic rock forms by heat and pressure
What Metamorphic rock forms as a result?
heat and pressure
What is shale after heat and pressure?
Slate is the metamorphic rock that forms from shale after it is exposed to heat and pressure for a llllloooooonnnnnnnggggg time.
What causes rocks to change from one type to another type?
Rock is continually recycled into new forms of rock by the processes of weathering, erosion and lithification, melting and solidification, or by pressure and/or heat causing recrystallization and changes in mineralization.
What forms as heat or pressure cause changes in an existing rock?
A "metamorphic" rock forms.
What makes matter change forms?
Any type of reaction, really. You could add heat or remove heat (thermal energy) to cause the matter to change phase. Also pressure can compress the matter into a new form.
