Rock on the surface surrounding the volcano will most likely not change. Rock under the surface near the magmatic intrusion that is the source of the volcano could be altered into contact metamorphic rock, altered by heat or heated fluids.

Can sedimentary rock be formed to any other rock?
yes it can be buried so deep it could turn into a metamorphic rock, or it could get buried next to a volcano and be molded into an igneous rock.
What kind of rock can magma turn into?
Magma would turn into igneous rock.
What is the process to turn lava into rock?
When magma erupts from the volcano and starts to come down the sides, It slowly cools going down and turns into igneous rock.
How does an Igneous rock turn into Magma?
No. If it cools as magma it will form an intrusive igneous rock. To form an extrusive igenous rock it must erupt from a volcano, where it becomes lava or pyroclastic material.
Does pumice turn to liquid when it leaves a volcano?
no. the liquid that comes out of a volcano can turn into pumice.
How do magma turn into extrusive igneous rock?
Lava can turn into igneous rock in 2 ways. When the lava cools to a hardening point inside the volcano it is called intrusive igneous rock. When lava cools outside of the volcano it is called extrusive igneous rock.
How will a sedimentary rock turn into an igneous rock?
Igneous rocks are formed when rock melts in a volcano or other hot spot.
Can a sedimentary rock be directly transformed into a igneous rock?
Yes, by heat and pressure. It could turn into two types of igneous rocks: intrusive and extrusive. An intrusive igneous rock is formed by heat from a volcano. It is cooled slowly, and has big crystals. An extrusive igneous rock is formed outside a volcano. It cools slowly and has small/ not visible crystals. So basically, if the sedimentary rock gets into a volcano, it can turn into an igneous rock. Hope that answered your question.

Does a mountain turn into a volcano?
No. A volcano can form a mountain, but an already existing mountain cannot turn into a volcano.
How does an Igneous rock turn into Magma?
No. If it cools as magma it will form an intrusive igneous rock. To form an extrusive igenous rock it must erupt from a volcano, where it becomes lava or pyroclastic material.
Does pumice turn to liquid when it leaves a volcano?
no. the liquid that comes out of a volcano can turn into pumice.
Can a volcano be red?
yes. lava is red. and if lava heats up the rock alot without melting, the rock will turn bright red but will not be visible from the outside because the extreme heat will melt the rock slowly from the inside
What would happen to a metamorphic rock that was wheathered and broken down into sediments?
The sediments made of the metamorphic rock would turn into sedimentary rock.
What will happen if a sedmentary rock is exposed to heat and pressure?
It, like any rock, would turn into a Metamorphic rock.
