List the characteristics of igneous rocks and classify them on the basis of place of origin and on the basis of chemical composition.
Igneous rocks are formed from the solidification of magma, which is a hot (600 to 1,300 °C, or 1,100 to 2,400 °F) molten or partially molten rock material. Earth is composed predominantly of a large mass of igneous rock with a very thin veneer of weathered material—namely, sedimentary rock. Whereas sedimentary rocks are produced by processes operating mainly at Earth’s surface by the disintegration of mostly older igneous rocks, igneous—and metamorphic—rocks are formed by internal processes that cannot be directly observed and that necessitate the use of physical-chemical arguments to deduce their origins. Because of the high temperatures within Earth, the principles of chemical equilibrium are applicable to the study of igneous and metamorphic rocks, with the latter _________ ________ _______ ________ ________ ______ _________ ____.
