Heating rocks can cause them to expand and contract, leading to stress within the rock which can eventually cause it to crack or break. This process is known as thermal stress and can weaken the structure of the rock over time.

rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
Yes. Proximity to a heat source can be enough to cause metamorphism of rock.
If igneous rocks are exposed to extreme pressure and heat, they are likely to recrystallize into new igneous rocks. On the other hand, if sedimentary rocks are exposed to extreme pressure and heat, they are likely to metamorphose into metamorphic rocks.
Nope, because they are created when the Earth pressurizes and heats it (but not to the point of melting). Igneous rocks are created when rocks melt.
I would say rocks.
if you throw a rock in soft ground it would make a whole

It is important to avoid placing wet rocks near a fire because the heat from the fire can cause the water inside the rocks to heat up rapidly and expand, leading to potential cracking or even exploding of the rocks. This can pose a safety hazard to those nearby as well as damage to property.
Yes. If you get too close the intense heat would damage components of it.
Yes heat could melt rocks
the metamorphic rocks are formed by heat and extreme pressure from other rocks

Some rocks that are good insulators of heat include sandstone, shale, and limestone. These rocks have low thermal conductivity, meaning they transfer heat slowly. This property makes them suitable for use in constructing buildings and barriers that help regulate temperature.
