Most metamorphic processes takes place few kilometers below the Earth's surface. Thus, "metamorphic rocks" are formed under conditions found few kilometers under the Earth's surface.
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the compaction of sediments. Two main groups of sedimentary rocks are clastic sedimentary rocks and chemical sedimentary rocks.
Metamorphism refers to the changes in the mineral composition of the rocks. The three agents of metamorphism are heat, pressure and water.
The conversion of one form of rock to another is referred as rock cycle. In a rock cycle, an igneous rock formed from the deposition of molten magma can get converted into sedimentary rock when igneous rock breaks down into pieces and sediments. Finally, the any sedimentary rock or igneous rock can undergo metamorphosis to form metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rock can again form igneous rock by melting of magma followed by crystallization.

Rank the ions in each set in order of decreasing size, and explain your ranking:
iragen [17]

Ranking of the ions in each set in order of decreasing size -

Cs+ > Ba²⁺ > Sr²⁺

Cs+ has the biggest size, because its more downward (compared to Sr2+) and more to the left (compared) ot Ba2+.

Sr2+ has the smallest size because it's more upwords (compared to Cs+ and Ba2+).

For isoelectronic ions, the greater the nuclear charge , the greater is the attraction for electrons and smaller is ionic radius. In other words, size of the isoelectronic ions decreases with increase in atomic number.

Cl3+ has the smallest ion among all.
