When a hot salt solution cools, the solubility of salt decreases, causing the excess salt to come out of the solution and form crystals. This process is called crystallization. As the temperature decreases, the individual salt molecules lose energy, come together, and organize themselves into a repeating pattern, leading to the formation of salt crystals.
When liquid rock cools slowly, crystals will be bigger because there is more time for the crystals to grow and develop before the rock solidifies. In contrast, when liquid rock cools quickly, crystals are smaller because there is less time for them to form and grow.
leave it to the pros
When magma cools fast, crystals are small.Less time to form crsytalsWhen magma cools slow, crystals are large.More time to form crystalsWhen magma cools very fast, crystals do not form; nothing.Very less time to formWhen magma cools very slow, large crystals form; a LOT.A lot more time to form
To grow salt crystals, you need a saturated salt solution, a container, and a seed crystal. Dissolve salt in water, heat if needed to saturate the solution. Place the seed crystal in the solution, cover it with a paper towel to allow slow evaporation, and let it sit undisturbed until crystals form.
It depends how slow/fast it cools into a rock. The slower it cools, the larger the crystals. The faster it cools, the smaller the crystals. It can also have no crystals. Let's say lava shot itself into the water. It cools so fast it might not have crystals

Yes, the faster a rock cools, the smaller the crystals will be. When rocks cool quickly, there is less time for crystals to grow, resulting in finer-grained textures with smaller crystals. Conversely, slower cooling allows more time for crystals to grow, leading to larger crystal sizes.

To grow salt crystals on a string, you can create a saturated salt solution by dissolving salt in water. Then, suspend a string in the solution and allow it to sit undisturbed. As the water evaporates, salt crystals will form on the string.
Salt crystals generally grow faster than alum crystals because salt is more soluble in water and forms crystals more quickly. Alum crystals tend to grow slower due to their lower solubility in water.
yes

yes
The reason why is because of where it comes from in a volcano and how fast it cools. If it cools slowly then it will have bigger crystals because the longer it has to cool the longer the crystals have to grow. So dose that answer your question
Salt is a more cubic element than sugar
I think it's because salt dissolves better in hot water than cold water, so as the solution cools the salt wants to come out of solution and crystallize. When you pour the solution over the sponge, this causes the liquid to evaporate. This further concentrates the salt so that it will crystallize. The salt crystals will start to form on undissolved salt or on the sponge. Once the crystals start forming, they grow fairly rapidly...
In presence of salt the crystals grow faster because the solubility of salt decreases the solubility of any other compound in water.
