...having a really hard time with them? 1.How does the rate of cooling influence the crystallization process? What does slow cooling allow crystals to grow larger?
2.In addition to the rate of cooling, what other factors influence the crystallization process?
3.What is a porphyritic texture and what does it indicate about the formation of the igneous rock?
4.What is a pegmatite? Why are the crystals in pegmatites so large?
5.What is the difference between magma and lava? Where do volcanic rocks form? Where do plutonic rocks form? Give me an honors level response including the depth at which magma is found, what else is in magma besides minerals, and what elements typically make up the minerals?
6.Explain the Bowen Reactions Series.
7.Relate the classification of rocks to the Bowen Reaction Series.
