Different kinds of rocks?
1. Igneous Rock - produced by solidification of molten magma from the mantle or from molten crust. Magma that solidifies at the Earth's surface conceives extrusive or volcanic igneous rocks. When magma cools and solidifies beneath the surface of the Earth intrusive or plutonic igneous rocks are formed.Examples: granite, basalt, gabbro, obsidian, pumice.2. Sedimentary Rock - formed by burial, compression, and chemical cementation of deposited weathered rock debris or sediments from the Earth's surface. They can also be formed by the precipitation of minerals from saturated solutions, such as is rock salt.Examples: shale, sandstone, gypsum, limestone, chert, coal.3. Metamorphic Rock - created when existing rock is chemically or physically modified by intense heat or pressure.Examples: quartzite, slate, marble, granulite, schist.
What is the components of the rock?
There are three types of rocks, igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. They are basically composed of minerals, water and dissolved gases.
What are the three categories that rocks are classified in?
Igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary are the three rock types.
Was there electricity in the 1940s?
Yes, electricity was formed in the 1800s, so it had existed for a long time (140 years) already. Wiki ROCKS! Your techno homeslice
How did Egyptians invent the pyramid?
The Egyptians did not build the pyramids, the pyramids are giant crystals that were synthetically grown. Just like the natural process of and the formation of sedimentary rocks from metamorphic rock from within the earth's crust the pyramids were a replica of this process. Graphite is formed first close to the magma then over time this rock will change into SiO2, Quartz Crystal. That's why the base and a majority of the pyramid is graphite, the cornerstone of the pyramid is Quartz Crystal. How do I know? I am the one that built them.
Are metamorphic rocks naturally formed?
Metamorphic rocks are naturally formed. they are formed from natural changes that happen to other rocks.
Can metamorphic rocks be formed from changes in igneous sedimentary or other metamorphic rocks?
yes
Are rocks natural forms?
Metamorphic rocks are naturally formed. they are formed from natural changes that happen to other rocks.
How does metamorphism rocks form?
metamorphic rocks are formed from sandstone
Which phenomenon leads to the formation of metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks undergo intense heat, pressure, or chemical changes within the Earth's crust. These changes cause the minerals in the rocks to reorganize and form new structures, resulting in the creation of metamorphic rocks.
What is a metamorphic rock made of shale?
A metaphorphic rock is a rock that undergoes changes to become a different type of rock. The rock changes due to extreme pressure wich makes them heat up, and change types.... i hope this helps :)
Are metamorphic rocks only formed by igneous rocks?
No. Metamorphic rocks can also from front sedimentary rocks and from other metamorphic rocks.
What rocks are formed by the effect of heat and pressure on other rocks?
the metamorphic rocks are formed by heat and extreme pressure from other rocks
What are metamorphic rocks formed from?
Metamorphic rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks that have been altered by heat, pressure, or ion exchange. Therefore, there is a wide range of metamorphic rock component material.
What are the 3 classifications of a rock?
The three classifications of rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation and lithification of sediments. Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks that undergo changes in response to heat, pressure, or chemically active fluids.
What kind of rock does a metamorphic rock start as?
Metamorphic rocks are formed from sedimentary rocks.
Which rocks are formed by the alteration of pre-exi sting rocks by great heat or pressure?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the alteration of pre-existing rocks through great heat and pressure. This process changes the mineral composition and texture of the original rocks, resulting in the formation of new minerals and textures. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
