Are sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks chemical sedimentary rocks?
No. The rocks you describe are clastic or detrital sedimentary rocks.
What are the two main types of sedimentary rocks?
Clastic (those formed of particles of other rocks) and non-clastic (organic and chemical precipitate or evaporite rocks).
What type of sedimentary rock forms when particles of mineral and rocks are cemented together?
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
How are clastic sedimentary rocks different from organic sedimentary rocks?
they form

What are detrital rocks formed from?
Detrital sedimentary rocks, also called clastic sedimentary rocks, are composed of rock fragments that have been weathered from pre-existing rocks. They are the most common rocks on the surface of the earth.
What are sedimentary rocks such as sandstone that are formed from broken fragments from other rocks?
Clastic or detrital rocks, depending on size.
What type of sedimentary rock forms when particles of mineral and rocks are cemented together?
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
What is the difference between detrital and chemical sedimentary rocks?
Detrital- made of sediment grains Orgains- Made of fossils Chemical- from due to chemical reactions I hope this helped you enough :)
What is a type of detrital sedimentary rock?
Detrital rocks are sedimentary rocks that are composed of particles of weathered and eroded igneous, metamorphic, or other sedimentary rocks that have been deposited, compacted, and cemented together. Sandstone, conglomerate, shale, and breccia are examples of detrital sedimentary rocks.
What kind of rock has layers and is made from small grain?
That is correct. A detrital (or "clastic") sedimentary rock is formed by sediment grains that have been weathered and eroded by existing rocks and then deposited as layers.
What class of sedimentary rocks is made of fragments of rock minerals and shells?
== == Clastic sedimentary rocks.
What are examples clastic sedimentary?
Sandstone, conglomerate, and breccia are examples of clastic sedimentary rock, composed of particles of other rocks.
What is the name of a rock with sediments of other rocks?
These rocks are called detrital or clastic.
