Most lava or magma types will fall in a temperature range of 1300-2400oF (700 to 1300oC). It all depends on the type of lava.
It depends on the type of lava. Basaltic lava, the most common type, is 1,800 to 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit. Other types of lava are cooler. The lowest temperature lava is the carbonatite lava, found only at the volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai in Tanzania is about 950 degrees Fahrenheit. Well,Rock turns into lava at 600-1200 Degrees Celsius, So maybe 800 and higher the temperature of Lava from Hawaiian Volcanos is about 1150 Degrees Celsius.
What else can I help you with?
Can magma melt iron?
Yes, magma can melt iron. Magma is composed of molten rock, which can reach temperatures high enough to melt iron, which has a melting point of about 1538 degrees Celsius. When iron-bearing materials are exposed to high enough temperatures in the Earth's mantle or during volcanic activity, they can melt and become part of the magma.
Does lava make holes in rocks?
Yes, lava can melt and erode rocks, creating holes or cavities in them. This process is known as vesiculation, where gases trapped in the molten lava expand and escape, leaving behind voids or bubbles in solidified rocks.
Does Mercury melt lead?
Yes. The melting point of lead is 327.46 °C. The temperature of lava is definitely greater than that. hence it can melt lead.
Will steel melt when touched by lava?
No. Lava is generally not hot enough to melt steel.
Are all black rocks lava lava rocks?
no, there are more rocks
What forms when rocks or minerals partially or completely melt?
Lava and magma are two forms of melted rocks
How does lava form the things that are not part of the island but instead lava makes it appear when it meets the ocean?
lava is formed when rocks melt
Can magma melt iron?
Yes, magma can melt iron. Magma is composed of molten rock, which can reach temperatures high enough to melt iron, which has a melting point of about 1538 degrees Celsius. When iron-bearing materials are exposed to high enough temperatures in the Earth's mantle or during volcanic activity, they can melt and become part of the magma.
When the volcano erupt do the lava melt things?
it all depends on whether or not there even is lava coming out of the volcano and what is in the vacinity. somethings like certain rocks will not melt. a town of people will though.
How Does heat turn into lava?
The rocks in the center of the Earth are under so much pressure that the heat makes the rocks melt. The melted rock is magma, or lava once it has got out of the ground.
Can rocks melt during the rock cycle?
Absolutely. If a rock is heated up by subduction into deeper parts of the earth, or even if it is in contact with other molten rocks (like lava) it can melt.
What temperature is needed to melt rocks?
Depending on the type and chemistry of the rocks involved, lava temperatures could range from approximately 1200 F to 2300 F (700 C to 1300 C), of course, in some parts of the mantle, rocks gets a lot hotter.
Does lava make holes in rocks?
Yes, lava can melt and erode rocks, creating holes or cavities in them. This process is known as vesiculation, where gases trapped in the molten lava expand and escape, leaving behind voids or bubbles in solidified rocks.
Do glass rocks get hotter than lava rocks in a fire pit?
No. They will reach the same temperature.
Why do holes form in extrusive rocks?
the holes in extrusive igneous rocks (lava) are called vesicles. They are formed by gas escaping from the rock when molten, leaving bubbles in the melt which which may be preserved when the lava solidifies
When rock melt what kind of rocks do they become?
lava also known as magma which is the more scientific form of the word
Does rocks have to melt in order to change form?
No, if it's with heat like magma or lava, yes, that's what changes it. (:
