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.
When heat and pressure is applied to any rock it becomes what?
It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.
When sedimentary rock is exposed to heat and pressure's what does it change into?
Metamorphic rock
How can sedimentry rock become metamorphic rock?
Well, first before the sediment can become to a metamorphic rock, it has to create into a sedimentary rock or an igneous rock, Then the rocks go under the ground and is under tons and tons of pressure, which fosters heat build up, and this causes them to change.
Would you expect to find a well preserved dinosaur bone in a metomorphic rock like schist?
because igneous' constant heat would melt it and water used to make sedimentary would break it with pressure or erode it
When limestone is exposed to intense heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
Marble.
How does shale become schist?
under heat and pressure
What rock do schist rocks form from?
If you apply shale with intense heat and pressure. you'll get slate. Now just apply intense heat and pressure to the slate an over time you'll get your schist
Which rock was subjected to intense heat and pressure but did not solidify from magma?
Schist
What is a metamorphic rock made from schist?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed when intense heat and/or pressure is applied to it's parent rock schist.
The most common charactristic of metamorphic rock is?
The only real characteristic that metamorphic rocks share is that they are formed by heat and pressure. Granite warps and twists and becomes schist; shale is compressed and heated and becomes slate... etc.
What is schist what part did it play in the building of New York?
Schist is a metamorphic rock. This type of rock has been changed because of great heat or pressure, or both
What do heat and pressure change shale to?
First it would change to Slate, but with increasing heat and pressure, it would eventually become Phyllite, then Schist, and finally Gneiss.
What is a metamorphic rock that has changed form from heat and pressure?
Schist and marble would be common examples.
What happens to a rubber band if exposed to heat?
When a rubber band is exposed to heat it contracts heat, meaning that sucks up all the heat and becomes smaller.
What will happen if a sedimentary rock is exposed to heat and pressure?
It would undergo metamorphism, if the heat and pressure are sufficient.
Name three metamorphic rocks?
gneiss, schist, slate
