Answer:
b- they melt easily
Rocks do not melt easily.
Explanation:
- A solid lump of rock is made up of crystalline crystals of various minerals that have fused together throughout time.
- The minerals might or might not have formed simultaneously.
- Color, hardness, lustre, crystal formations, density, and cleavage are characteristics that aid geologists in determining a mineral's identity in a rock.
- The atomic structure of a crystal essentially determines its form, cleavage, and hardness. Chemical composition is the main determinant of colour and density.
- Since rocks are aggregates of mineral grains or crystals, the characteristics of the various constituent minerals have a significant role in determining the characteristics of the final product.
- By averaging the relative characteristics and occasionally orientations of the different grains or crystals within a rock, these overall qualities are identified.
