Niether. Volcanic rock is a mixture.
Pumice is a nonmetallic mineral. It is a type of volcanic rock that is formed from the rapid cooling of frothy lava with high gas content, resulting in a lightweight and porous texture.
Sulfur is a bright yellow nonmetallic element often found near volcanic areas.
The compound likely has covalent bonding. In covalent bonding, nonmetallic atoms share electrons to achieve a full outer electron shell, forming a stable compound. This type of bonding typically occurs between atoms of similar electronegativity.
A slab of volcanic rock is called a "lava flow" or a "lava rock".
Magma, (Volcanic Rock)
Pumice is a nonmetallic mineral. It is a type of volcanic rock that is formed from the rapid cooling of frothy lava with high gas content, resulting in a lightweight and porous texture.
Limestone is a nonmetallic mineral. It is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of calcium carbonate, which is a chemical compound with a nonmetallic element (calcium) and a nonmetallic element (carbon) bonded together. Metallic minerals, on the other hand, are composed of metals or have metallic properties. Limestone does not fall into this category.
Silicon
Sulphur
Pumice is neither an element nor a compound. It is a type of volcanic rock that is made up of various minerals and volcanic glass.
Sulfur is a bright yellow nonmetallic element often found near volcanic areas.
Calcite is a compound and therefore cannot be classified as a metal or nonmetal.
A seashell is considered nonmetallic as it is primarily composed of calcium carbonate which is a compound commonly found in nature.
An ionic compound is formed between metallic and nonmetallic atoms, where the metallic atom loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, and the nonmetallic atom gains these electrons to become a negatively charged anion. This electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic compound.
No. Volcanic rock is not flammable.
1. Iron is a metal, not a non-metal. 2. Iron is a chemical element, not a compound.
Volcanic islands are formed by volcanoes and are therefore composed of volcanic rock.
