What is solidus and liquidus temperature of granite?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Jana Kemp The liquidus and solidus temperatures are 925-665 C (initial4.5%H2O), 750-630 C. What is solidus and liquidus temperature? Simply put, liquidus is the lowest temperature at which an alloy is completely liquid; solidus is the highest temperature at which an alloy is completely solid. Pure metals are fluid, and they melt at

Volcanic Explosivity Index of Cumbre Vieja eruption
Earth ScienceAsked by: Delfeayo Mazatan Is a VEI 9 eruption possible? It is possible that evidence for a VEI 9 eruption exists and is buried in the geologic record. Eruptions that large would be very rare events, but it is impossible to say that eruptions that large have never occurred. What was the last VEI 8

How do we know how much Uranium was in any given sample when it was deposited?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Augie Sims How does uranium series dating work? U-Th dating is based on the activity ratios of parent (Uranium) and product (Thorium) isotopes, by calculating the disintegration of the parent to the daughter over time. This is done by the detection (mass spectrometry) of both the parent (234U) and daughter (230Th) products of

What are some limitations for using meteorites as evidence for the Earth’s age?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Michelle Lia How do meteorites tell us about the age of the Earth? Certain “primitive” meteorites contain the first solid material to form in our solar system. Researchers have used the age of this material—4.568 billion years—to determine the age of our solar system. Many primitive meteorites have remained essentially unchanged since they
