what group of rocks does sandstone belong to? give a three nameof a elements mentioed? what is the name of one compound mentioned?
What is semendary rocks and give an example?
sedimentary rocks~ types of rock that are formed by the deposition of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water and some examples are limestone, conglomerate, sandstone, and shale
What makes sedimentary rocks red?
Well, sediment is usually a variety of things mixed together, like soil. In soil, you can see many different things, that's because sediment can contain things such as, dirt itself, leaves, dead organisms-such as plants and remains of animals (like if an animal was killed by another, the dead remains would decompose into small pieces). So, if sedimentary rocks (which basically is compacted soil/dirt) are red, it's something that got mixed into the sediment.
The dead sea abounds in chemically formed sedimentary rocks give reason?
Saturation and deposition.
How is it possible that a sedimentary rocks change into marble?
It is possible for a sedimentary rock to become marble through the effects of environmental conditions such as pressure and temperature. They help to alter the structural and textural characteristics of the rock thereby changing it form and appearance. Limestone is a common sedimentary rock that is transformed in Marble which is a metamorphic rock. The process of changing a sedimentary rock into a metamorphic rock is called Metamorphism.
What sedimentary gives info about past conditions of?
Sedimentary rocks are laid down one layer at a time. The layers give information on how the rocks formed.
What features are unique in sedimentary rocks?
They can give you clues to how, when and where the rocks formed. :D
Can you give me a sentence for sedimentary?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of materials such as sand, silt, and organic matter over time.
What role do minerals play in the formation of sedimentary rocks?
Minerals are the building blocks of sedimentary rocks. They are the particles that accumulate and cement together to form these rocks. Minerals like quartz, feldspar, and calcite are commonly found in sedimentary rocks and help give them their unique characteristics.
What is a prominently characteristic physical feature of all sedimentary rocks?
They can give you clues to how, when and where the rocks formed. :D
How sedimentary rock can give information about past conditions is through?
Sedimentary rock can provide information about past conditions through the fossils it contains, which can indicate the types of plants and animals that lived in that area. Additionally, the sedimentary structure, such as layering and grain size, can give insights into the environment in which the rock was formed, like whether it was a beach, riverbed, or deep ocean floor. Chemical composition of sedimentary rocks can also reveal information about the climatic conditions or chemical processes that occurred in the past.
Can you give me facts about sedimentary rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments in layers over time. They account for about 75% of all rock on Earth's surface. Examples include sandstone, limestone, and shale. Fossils are commonly found in sedimentary rocks, making them important for understanding Earth's history.
What group of rock does shale belong to?
what group of rocks does sandstone belong to? give a three nameof a elements mentioed? what is the name of one compound mentioned?
What other title would you give for sedimentary rocks?
use google.com, because I don't know!
What type of rock is most useful historical geologists?
Sedimentary rocks are most useful for historical geologists because they can contain fossils and provide information about past environments and the Earth's history. Sedimentary rocks also often preserve layers that can be used to determine the relative age of rock formations.
What is the process that leads all types of rocks to become magma?
Rock Cycle: Igneous Rock with erosion give sediments which will compact to give Sedimentary Rock which with heat and pressure give Metamorphic Rocks which will melt with heat and pressure to give magma
How do you classify sedimentary rocks?
The basic division of sedimentary rocks is into clastic and chemical rocks. Clastic rocks are formed when grains form a sediment and are then cemented together, as happens with sandstone or shale. Chemical rocks form when solid precipitates out of solution, for instance when calcium carbonate is formed from sea water to give chalk.
