called solidifies into igneous rocks
Igneous rocks Composed mainly of silicate minerals (silicon &
oxygen). Formed my partial melting of solid rock in
earths upper mantle
Molten rock reaches earths surface Lava
where it is called _____
Most magma consist of three A liquid component, a solid component and a
materials gaseous component
A liquid portion of magma is called Melt
_____ its composed mainly of mobile
ions of the eight most common
elements found in earths crust silicon
and oxygen along with lesser
amounts of aluminum potassium
calcium sodium iron and magnesium
, The solid components in magma (if Crystals
any) are _____ of silicate minerals
The gaseous component of Magma Volatiles
called _______ are materials that
vaporize at surface pressures.
Volatile is most commonly present in
magma are water vapor H2O, carbon
dioxide CO2 and sulfur dioxide they
are confined in the magma by the
immense pressure exerted by the
overlying rocks
In the process called ________ cooling Crystallization
reverses the events of melting
When magma crystallize adapt it Intrusive igneous rocks
forms ________ also known as plutonic
rocks
Igneous rocks that form when Extrusive igneous rocks
molten rock solidifies at the surface
are classified as __________ they are also
called volcanic rocks
As magma cools and solidifies these The light silicates (nonferromagnesian) and the
