what are chemical rocks formed by?
By precipitation or evaporation of saturated solutions.
What rock forms when mineral-rich water evaporates?
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation from, or evaporation of, water that is saturated with dissolved minerals. In addition, most clastic sedimentary rocks are also formed from the cementing together of sediment particles by the precipitation of minerals from water.
Energy is stored in rocks adjacent to the site of a future earthquake as what?
Energy is stored in rocks adjacent to the site of a future earthquake as elastic potential energy due to the stress and strain built up in the rocks. This stored energy is released suddenly when the rocks undergo sudden movement along a fault line, resulting in an earthquake.
What is precipitation that is stored between or within rocks?
The precipitation stored between or within rocks is called groundwater. Groundwater is water that has infiltrated the ground and is held in the pore spaces between rocks or within the fractures of rocks. This stored water can be extracted through wells for drinking water or used to support plant life.

Where is precipitation stored between or within the rocks?
Yes. It will depend on the type of rock. For a porous rock,such as sandstone or shale, the water can be within the rocks. For non-porous rocks it will be stored between the rocks.
What is precipitation that is stored within rocks?
Groundwater.
What is Precipitation that is stored below the ground?
Precipitation that is stored below the ground is referred to as groundwater. It fills the spaces between rocks and soil particles in the subsurface and can be accessed through wells for drinking water or irrigation purposes. Groundwater is an important natural resource that plays a vital role in supporting ecosystems and human activities.
How does acid precipitation change rock over time?
Acid precipitation can dissolve minerals in rocks, leading to a process called chemical weathering. This can weaken the rocks, making them more susceptible to erosion. Over time, acid precipitation can alter the composition and structure of rocks, ultimately causing them to deteriorate or break down.
What allows precipitation to slowly pass through and form groundwater reserves?
Porous and permeable materials like sand, gravel, and fractured rocks allow precipitation to slowly pass through and form groundwater reserves. As water percolates through these materials, it gets stored in underground reservoirs called aquifers. The amount of precipitation and the properties of the ground material influence the rate and amount of groundwater recharge.
What type of sedimentary rocks forms when crystals grow out of solution?
Chemical
What is the difference between eco-friendlly colors and chemical colors?
Organic sedimentary rocks are formed from the remains of plant and animal life. Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation of minerals in a solution.
How is energy stored in rocks?
It isn't
Chemocal sedimentary rocks are made from?
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed by the precipitation of minerals from water.
Why does acid precipitation weather rock faster than normal precipitation does?
Acid precipitation weather rocks faster than normal precipitation because acid precipitation has a higher concentration of acid than normal precipitation.
