What kind of sedimentary rock is made from solutions of dissolve minerals and water?
Some limestones are made by precipitation of dissolved calcium carbonate. Some cherts are formed from dissolved silicates in thermal springs and evaporite minerals, such as gypsum and rock salt (halite) are formed by evaporation of water from solutions of dissolved minerals.
How does a sedimentary rocks turn into a metamorphic rock?
By exposure to heat and/or pressure through depth of burial, directed pressure, or proximity to a magma source. Existing minerals can recrystallize, non-hydrous minerals can replace hydrous minerals, new minerals can be formed from the introduction of new ions from heated solutions, and minerals can become flattened and aligned in parallel layers.
What are minerals that form from magma are formed by?
Crystallization
Why nitrogen is included in mineral but it is not mineral?
Minerals are formed from different elements. Nitrogen, (which is a gas in its natural state) makes up 78% of earths atmosphere. Minerals are formed through a biogeochemical process, generally forming crystals.
How are mineral formed by crystallization from magma?
As magma cools, elements combine to form minerals.
Can metamorphic rocks be formed by solutions of minerals?
No.

What are two ways in which minerals can form alike and how they are different?
Minerals can form either by crystallization from magma or by precipitation from aqueous solutions. Both processes involve the solidification of mineral compounds from a liquid state. However, crystallization from magma occurs underground as molten rock cools and solidifies, while precipitation from aqueous solutions involves minerals precipitating out of a solution due to changes in temperature, pressure, or chemical composition.
Where do minerals come from and how are they formed?
Minerals are formed in the Earth's crust through various processes such as cooling of molten rock, precipitation from hot water solutions, and pressure and temperature changes. They can also be found in meteorites and formed through biological processes.
How are chemical rocks form formed?
Chemical sedimentary rock is created by precipitation of minerals out of, or evaporation from, saturated solutions that are high in dissolved minerals. Rock gypsum and rock salt are two examples.
Is the sedimentary rock that forms when minerals precipitate from a solution and settle from a suspension organic chemical or clastic sedimentary rock?
The sedimentary rock formed from minerals precipitating from a solution is called chemical sedimentary rock. It is formed through processes such as evaporation or chemical reactions, without the involvement of organic material or clastic particles.
What sedimentary rock is made from solution of dissolved minerals and water?
Some limestones are made by precipitation of dissolved calcium carbonate. Some cherts are formed from dissolved silicates in thermal springs and evaporite minerals, such as gypsum and rock salt (halite) are formed by evaporation of water from solutions of dissolved minerals.
How are petrified or perminilized fossil formed?
Permineralized fossils form when solutions rich in minerals permeate porous tissue, such as bone or wood. Minerals precipitate out of solution and fill the pores and empty spaces.
How are rhodochrosite formed?
Rhodochrosite is formed through the combination of manganese and carbonate minerals under low-temperature hydrothermal conditions. These minerals precipitate out of solutions rich in manganese within cavities of rocks or in veins. Over time, the material solidifies into rhodochrosite crystals.
Chemical rocks are formed by?
By precipitation or evaporation of saturated solutions.
What is formed first rocks or minerals?
Minerals are formed first then rocks
What happens during precipitating?
The liquified water vapor falls onto the Earth
