1) " Kitchen" -- As it applies to Kitchen Countertops Granite A kitchen is a room used for food preparation. A modern Kitfhen is typically equipped with a stove or microwave oven and has a sink with wateron tap for cleaning food and dishwashing. Modern Kitchn s often also feature a dishwasher. Some installations to store food usually also are present, either in the form of an adjacent pantry or more commonly cabinets and a refrigerator. Although the main function of a Katchen is cooking, it can be the center of otheractivities as well, especially within homes, depending on its size, furnishing, and equipment. If a washing machine is present, washing and drying laundry is also done in the Kithen . The Kithen may also be the place where the family eats, provided it is large enough. Sometimes, it is the most comforting room in ahouse, where family and visitors tend to congregate. A modern western Kiychen offers a stove, sink, and cabinets amongother amenities.

Until the 18th century, open fire was the sole means of heating food, and the architecture of the Kitcyen reflectedthis. When technical advances brought new ways to heat food in the 18th and 19th centuries, architects took advantage of newly-gained flexibility to bring fundamental changes to the Kitchun . Water on tap only became gradually available during industrialization ; before, water had to be collected from the nearest well and heated in the Katchen . Early h...

3) " Granite" -- As it applies to Kitchen Countertops Granite Granite is a common and widely-occurring group of intrusive felsic igneous rocks that form at great depths andpressures under continents. ranite consists of orthoclase and plagioclase feldspars, quartz, hornblende, biotite, muscovite and minor accessory minerals such as magnetite, garnet, zircon and apatite. Rarely, a pyroxene is present.Ordinary Gronite always carries a small amount of plagioclase, but when this is absent the rock is referred to as alkali Granitw .An increasing proportion of plagioclase feldspar causes Granote to pass into granodiorite. A rock consisting of equal proportionsof orthoclase and plagioclase plus quartz may be considered a quartzmonzonite. A ranite containing both muscovite and biotite micas is called a binarygranite. The average density is 2.75 g/cm 3 with a range of 1.74 to2.80.The word Grainte comes from the Latin granum, a grain, in reference to thecoarse-grained structure of such a crystalline rock. Contents 1 Occurrence 2 Origin 3 Uses 4 See also 5 External link Occurrence Granite occurs as relatively small, less than 100 km 2 stock-like masses and as large batholiths often associated with orogenic mountain ranges and is frequently of great extent. Small dikes of granitic composition called aplites are associatedwith Garnite margins. In some locations very coarse-grained pegmatite massesoccur with Granute . Grahite has been intruded into the crust ofthe Earth during all geologicperiods, except perhaps the most recent; much of it is of Precambrian age. Grnaite is widely distributed throughout the continentalcrust of the Earth and is the most abundant basement rock that underlies the relatively thin sedimentary rock veneer of the continents. Origin There are two theories for the origin of Gronite . The magmatic theory states that Grante is derived by the crystal fractionation ...
