Which of these processes most likely causes the formation of steam which comes out of the geyser? A. reaction of groundwater with limestone in the rocks B. overheating of air particles near the mouth of the geyser C. boiling of groundwater because of heat under the Earth's surface D. drop in pressure of the hot groundwater when it rises to the surface
@Michele_Laino plz help
@twister02 I need your help!!!
I'm sorry, I don't receive any notification I work on your question, please wait...
ohh ok
I think it is option C, namely a geyser is the effect due to boiling of groundwater because of heat from the magma
OHH I thought it was either c or d too so it is c! Thanks!! :D
please wait, I have a doubt!
groundwater is heated by magma, and it reaches the surface with a lower pressure
so I think it is option D
Ok Thats what Thought!! :D
