Question

1. according to the figure above showing a limited view of bowens reaction series, what type of mineral causes a continuous reaction series? a. magnesium b. calcium c. iron d. sodium

Explanation:

In Bowen's reaction series, the continuous reaction series is mainly related to plagioclase feldspar which involves sodium - calcium solid - solution. Sodium is involved in the continuous reaction series of Bowen's reaction series as plagioclase changes from calcium - rich to sodium - rich as the magma cools.

Answer:

d. Sodium
