The minerals in magma form crystals when solidifying, giving igneous rocks their characteristic hardness.
YES <><><><> FLOWING lava- still liquid- is VERY hot- over a thousand degrees. As lava cools, it thickens, and becomes hard (rock)
Lava and magma are not rocks because they are liquids and cant harden because they are to hot to harden and cant cool themselves down long enough to form a hard structure. Magma and lava is rock - it's just been superheated by the Earth's core.
When heat is taken away from hot lava, it begins to cool and solidify into solid rock. This process can result in the formation of volcanic rocks such as basalt or obsidian, depending on the speed at which the lava cools.
Hot lava cools and hardens into igneous rock.
Magma is not plasma since plasma is neither solid ,liquid or gas while magma is always solid when cool and liquid when hot.
Lava is extremely hot!! Lava is molten rock- over 1000 Celsius.
Lava is very hot- it is melted rock. Hot rock + water= steam
Lava
The rock that is hot and melted is called magma. It forms beneath the Earth's surface due to high temperatures and pressure, causing solid rock to melt. When magma erupts through a volcano, it is called lava. Both magma and lava are composed of various minerals and can solidify into igneous rock when they cool.
Lava is the hot molten rock that emerges from a volcano.
Yes, lava rock is hot to the touch because it retains heat from its formation through volcanic activity.
