The mammoth hot springs were most likely formed when

Hotspings are formed due to the heat produced by the interior of the earth. The rocks at certain depths are hot enough that the water when percolates down, mixes up and get heated geothermally.

A geothermal gradient refers to the rate at which the temperature increases with the increase in depth. This geothermal gradient differs slightly from place to place and ranges from about 25-30°C/km.

This is how the mammoth hotsprings were formed.

chemical properties are the characteristic of matter which can only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a sample like flammability reactivity and toxicity.

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
