We will get Plagioclase as phenocryst in a porphyritic basalt using Bowmen's reaction series.

Porphyritic basalt is mafic  i.e. it has low silica content  and have higher melting point than felsic which have higher silica content . Porphyritic basalt's mineral composition is Calcium Plagioclase . Phenocryst is large crystal , early forming igneous rock.

Thus , on cooling plagioclase will be seen as phenocryst which is clear from Bowmen's reaction series because it is present on right side of series at higher temperature range in continuous branch in mafic region.

vazorg [7]

Explanation:

A chemical bond which is formed in between positively charged atoms when there is sharing of free electrons in a lattice of cations is known as a metallic bond.

In a pure metal, atoms are surrounded by free moving valence electrons which move from one part of metal to another.

Thus, we can conclude that pure metals are held together by metallic bonds due to attraction between mobile valence electrons and positively charged metal ions.
