The rate at which water cools depends on its environment.
Compared to land, NO!
Nope, it boiled slowly.
A high specific heat allows water to heat slowly and cool slowly. This is because water requires a large amount of energy to change its temperature compared to other substances, which results in a slow rate of temperature change.
Because solids cool off and heat up more rapidly than liquids.
Lava will cool quickly compared to underground magma.
the cool air will rise
the cool air will rise
Rapidly
Lava cools down primarily through heat loss to its surroundings, such as the surrounding air and ground. Water can also cool lava quickly by causing it to solidify rapidly. Other methods include covering the lava with ash or other insulating materials to help it cool more slowly.
On contact with water lava will cool rapidly to form rock.
Rhyolite is an igneous rock that has formed from rapidly cooling lava or ash.
That is called evaporation when it happens slowly; if it happens more rapidly it is called vaporization.
