What else can I help you with?
Does Granite cools very quickly?
No. Granite cools relatively slowly; its large crystals are one method of observing this. Granite is referred to as a "phaneritic" igneous rock, meaning that it is coarse-grained. Coarse-grained rocks cool slowly, which means that the minerals have time to form large crystals before the rock solidifies. A rock with the same composition as granite that does cool quickly is called rhyolite.
Do intrusive rocks have large crystals because they cool quickly?
No. Intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals because they cool slowly.
What forms when melted granite flows onto the earths surface and quickly hardens?
When melted granite flows onto the Earth's surface and quickly hardens, it forms an igneous rock known as rhyolite. Rhyolite is fine-grained and often exhibits flow banding due to its rapid cooling process.
Does granite cool quickly or slowly how do you know?
Granite is formed from the slow cooling of magma.
What are the different rates at which rocks cool?
Rocks cool at different rates due to how they were formed if they were formed intrusively or extrusively Examples of different igneous rocks that form differently is Granite and Gabbro form the same but different from Rhyolite.
Does Dunite cool quickly or slowly?
slowly
Does the biotite rock cool quickly or slowly?
slowly
What property of a surface determines how quickly or slowly it will heat and cool?
The thermal conductivity and color of a surface determines how quickly or slowly it will heat and cool
Is Rhyolite foliated or non-foliated?
Neither. Foliation is a term used in assesing metamorphic rocks, not igneous rocks such as rhyolite.
What is the term when magma cool slowly then cools quickly?
I cant tell!
What is the igneous rocks that cool quickly on the surface?
Igneous rocks that cool quickly on the surface are known as extrusive or volcanic rocks. Examples include basalt, andesite, and rhyolite. These rocks have fine-grained textures due to their rapid cooling process.
Does andesite cool quickly or slowly?
Lava will cool quickly compared to underground magma.
Does Granite cools very quickly?
No. Granite cools relatively slowly; its large crystals are one method of observing this. Granite is referred to as a "phaneritic" igneous rock, meaning that it is coarse-grained. Coarse-grained rocks cool slowly, which means that the minerals have time to form large crystals before the rock solidifies.

Do intrusive rocks have large crystals because they cool quickly?
No. Intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals because they cool slowly.
What happens if you cool salt water to quickly or to slowly after heating it?
im not sure but can you people help me
Do metamorphic rocks cool slowly?
Most do, however some do not, for instance a pseudotachylyte cools quickly.
Why does andesite cool slowly?
Andesite cools quickly because it forms from material erupted onto the surface, and so is composed to a cool environment.
