1 NAME: PERIOD: DATE: LAB PARTNERS: LAB #9 ROCK IDENTIFICATION **NOTE TO TEACHERS: THIS LAB CAN BE DONE AS ONE BIG LAB OR DIVIDED INTO THREE SEPARATE LABS (9A, 9B, AND 9C)** INTRODUCTION The three main types of rocks found on the Earth are Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic. Rocks remember their formation by recording it in the physical and chemical characteristics found in each sample. By looking very closely at these characteristics, you can unravel the history of rocks. Rocks from all over the world have certain things in common. This will allow you to identify rocks and compare them to others. OBJECTIVES You will determine the name of unknown rocks based on their physical characteristics using the Earth Science Reference Tables. MATERIALS Rock Samples and Earth Science Regents Reference Tables TIME 2 3 Periods PROCEDURES 1. For each unknown rock, identify the key physical characteristics. Using your Earth Science Reference Tables, determine the name of the rock based on the observed characteristics. IGNEOUS ROCKS PART 1 or LAB 9A STATION/SAMPLE #1

5 STATION/SAMPLE #8 LABORATORY QUESTIONS FOR PART 1 or 9A 1. Describe how the rate at which molten rock material cools effects the size of the crystals formed in an igneous rock. 2. How can you tell if an igneous rock has had an intrusive or extrusive origin? Explain fully. 3. List the mineral that make a light colored, low density, felsic rock: 4. Describe the difference between lava and magma.
