What else can I help you with?
When magma heats underground water the result may be?
When magma comes in contact with underground water, it creates hot springs, or geysers.
Does andesite cool quickly or slowly?
Lava will cool quickly compared to underground magma.
What kind of igneous rock texture results from slow cooling magma?
A coarse grained texture, referred to as a phaneritic texture, will be the resultant igneous rock texture. The slower the magma cools the more time minerals have to crystallize and thus grow bigger.
The process in which a rock changes as a result of heat generated from magma?
contact metamorphism
What is the main lava chamber in the neck of a volcano?
A magma chamber in a volcano is a pool-like container of liquid rock just below the earth underground. It is constantly under tremendous pressure, and with enough time, it can start fracturing rock to make places for magma to escape.
Is a volcano the result of the cooling and hardening deep underground?
Generally, the volcano is not the result of cooling and hardening deep underground. It is the molten magma in the core of the earth that, when it rises and breaks through the earth's crust, results in volcanic action.
What is the result of cooling and hardening of magma deep underground?
Intrusive igneous rock.
What structures are formed from the cooling and hardening of magma beneaths earths surface?
Intrusive igneous rocks such as dikes, sills, and batholiths are formed from the cooling and hardening of magma beneath Earth's surface. These structures are formed when magma solidifies underground, creating features like vertical dikes, horizontal sills, and large masses of magma called batholiths.
Would it be true to say that When magma cools underground evaporation results?
No, it would not be accurate to say that evaporation results from the cooling of magma underground. When magma cools, it solidifies into igneous rock rather than evaporating. Evaporation typically occurs when liquids turn into gases at higher temperatures, which is not the case for cooling magma. Instead, the process involves crystallization as minerals form from the cooling magma.
How does magma create rock?
Magma is molten rock. It becomes rock by cooling and hardening.
What is the cleavage of diorite?
Diorite is formed by the cooling of intermediate magmas underground.
What forms igenous rock?
The cooling, solidification, crystallization and hardening of molten magma or lava.
Which rock type forms from cooling on earth's surface?
Igneous rocks are formed by the cooling and hardening of molten material called magma.
How is the texture of an igneous rock related to the rate which it cooled?
Quick cooling of magma results in small crystal formation. Slow cooling magma results in larger crystals.
Where do intrusive igneous rock form?
They form underground from the cooling and solidification of magma.
What rock most likely formed underground from slow cooling magma?
Igneous
What are rocks that form when magma cools underground?
Intrusive igneous rocks, such as granite and diorite, form when magma cools underground. These rocks have a coarse-grained texture due to the slow cooling process, allowing large mineral crystals to form within the rock. Intrusive rocks are typically found in plutons or batholiths beneath the Earth's surface.
