All the information and data are in the excel file.
To complete this assignment, type up your findings in a two-page, double-spaced paper that clearly answers: What trends are found in the data? Are there increasing abundances of an oxide(s) with an increasing abundance of SiO2? Decreasing abundances of an oxide(s) with an increase in SiO2? No correlation of the oxide(s) with an increase in SiO2? Based on the data, if you plotted 200 additional data points for each rock type, would you see a tight plot in the middle of its classification range or would there be a continuum of compositions? How does this data relate to mineral composition,
Bowens Reaction Series, and the evolution of magma/lava composition and resultant rock type(s). Explain your thinking.
