No. Magma is not pyroclastic, and most rock isn't either. Pyroclastic material is ash and rock fragments ejected during explosive volcanic eruptions. Magma is molten rock beneath the earth's surface.

What is the melted rock which flows out of the earths surface is called?
Magma, or pyroclastic flow.
How does an Igneous rock turn into Magma?
No. If it cools as magma it will form an intrusive igneous rock. To form an extrusive igenous rock it must erupt from a volcano, where it becomes lava or pyroclastic material.
What is a dense cloud of super hot gasses and rock fragments that races downhill from an erupting volcano called?
Theyse hot clouds, when they flow downward, are called pyroclastic flows.
What are 3 examples of Pyroclastic debris?
Rock debris blasted into the air during volcanic eruption; such as magma bombs, cinder, and ash.
Is a pyroclastic material high or low-viscosity?
Pyroclastic material can form with magma of any composition, but it is more likely to form with high-viscosity magma.
Are magma and rock both pyroclastic materials?
No. Magma is molten rock that is beneath earth's surface. When it erupts it can form lava or pyroclastic material. Although pyroclastic material can form rocks, most rocks are not from pyroclastic material.
What igneous rock is formed from magma or lava cools and hardens?
Cooled magma, lava, or pyroclastic material is igneous rock. Cooled magma forms intrusive igneous rock, while lava and pyroclastic material form extrusive rock. Anything beyond that depends on more specific factors.
What is the melted rock which flows out of the earths surface is called?
Magma, or pyroclastic flow.
Is a material magma?
No. Magma is molten rock that has not erupted. After it erupts it may or may not form pyroclastic material depending on how explosive the eruption is.

Is a pyroclastic material high or low-viscosity?
Pyroclastic material can form with magma of any composition, but it is more likely to form with high-viscosity magma.
What is magma and fragments of rock that are ejected into the atmosphere during a violent volcanic eruption?
Pyroclastic Material; I got all the other matching questions and it was the only one left so therefore it is right.
Why is igneous rock found on a volcanic island?
Igneous rock is rock that formed from molten material. Volcanoes erupt lava and pyroclastic material, which forms extrusive igneous rock. Magma can solidify with in a volcano, forming intrusive igneous rock.
What Magma and lava can both solidify to produce?
They are both the same thing, which is melted rock, which means they solidify to form rock. The only difference between magma and lava is that magma is underground, and lava is not.
Is a rock a pyroclastic material?
Some rocks are pyroclastic but most are not.
