Does Light-colored rocks with lower densities form from basaltic magma?

Basaltic Magmas are dark colored, heavy and are ferromagnesian in composition, so they most times do not form light colored rocks, rather, the Felsic Granitic Magma forms the light colored rocks with lower densities.

Is basaltic or andesitic magma hotter?
Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma.
Is basaltic magma or granitic magma hotter?
Baslatic magma is hotter.
When equal amounts of a basaltic and granitic magma mix what is the resulting magma?
basaltic
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
What magma is the most abundant type erupted at oceanic spreading centers?
Basaltic magma.
True or false Light colored rocks with lower densities form from basaltic magma?
False.
Are light-colored rocks with lower densities form from basaltic magma?
You didnt even put nothing if you not gone answer the question dont put nun period
Is basaltic or andesitic magma hotter?
Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma.
Is basaltic magma or granitic magma hotter?
Baslatic magma is hotter.
What kinds of lava do volcanoes with lower viscosity magma produce?
They produce basaltic lava.
When equal amounts of a basaltic and granitic magma mix what is the resulting magma?
basaltic
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
What color rocks does basaltic magma form?
Basaltic magma usually forms a black rock.
Will rhyolitic magmas erupt at lower temperatures than basaltic magmas?
Yes, rhyolitic magmas are several hundred °C colder than basaltic magmas. This is because the melting point of a rhyolitic magma is much lower than that of basaltic magma. Instead of heating up rhyolitic magma much above its melting point it will ascend and either crystallize in the Earth's interior as a pluton or erupt.
Which would you expect to cause the greatest amount of contact metamorphism an intrusion of basaltic magma or an intrusion of rhyolitic magma?
Basaltic magma
What magma is the most abundant type erupted at oceanic spreading centers?
Basaltic magma.
What type of magma is closer to intrusive rocks?
magma can be classified into two,magma of granitic composition(originates from lower continental crust) and magma of basaltic composition (which originates from upper mantle).Both can form intrusive rocks.
