Mineral are classified based on their properties, but rocks are not. Describe how Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic rocks are classified.

Answer: so let me do it this way

Sedimentary rocks are classified based on how they form and on the size of the sediments, if they are clastic.Image result for how is an igneous igneous classified

Igneous rocks may be simply classified according to their chemical/mineral composition as felsic, intermediate, mafic, and ultramafic, and by texture or grain size: intrusive rocks are course grained (all crystals are visible to the naked eye) while extrusive rocks may be fine-grained (microscopic crystals) or glass.

As with igneous and sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks are classified on the basis of texture (grain size, shape, orientation) and mineral composition.

i hope this works for you!
