What conditions lead to the formation of large crystals in an igneous rock?
Igneous rocks will develop large crystals is they cool slowly underground.
What factor determines if an igneous rock has no crystals small crystals or large crystals?
it depends on the heat, if it cool very quick then it has small crystals but if it cool very slowly than it is bigger the slower the cooling period the bigger the crystals
A type of instrusive igneous rock with large crystals?
Gabbro.
How can you tell if a intrusive rock forms?
Large crystals are diagnostic of an intrusive igneous rock, as large crystals form as the source magma cools slowly.
What type of rock that forms from magma or lava is rock?
Igneous rock is formed from the cooling of magma or lava.

Do igneous rocks have large crystals?
Yes, they can. Extrusive igneous rocks, which form outside the Earth's surface, often contain small or no crystals, because they cool quickly and the particles in the lava do not have much time to arrange themselves. Intrusive rocks, which form inside the Earth, generally have large crystals because they cool slowly. Granite is an example of an igneous rock with large crystals.
Do igneous rocks have small crystals large crystals or no crystals?
It depends on the type of igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks such as granite have large crystals, extrusive igneous rocks may have small crystals as in basalt or no crystals as in pumice.
What igneous rock does not have large crystals?
sedimantry

What is an extrusive igneous rock with large crystals?

intrusive rock
What do the large crystals in this igneous rock tell about the rock?
That it cooled very slowly.
