What else can I help you with?
Is granite a type of cooled lava?
Granite is formed from molten rock that has cooled. Since it forms underground, however, the molten rock that it forms from is called magma rather than lava.
What is formed by cooled magma cooling?
it is lava and when lava cools it forms igneous rock
When lava cools it forms what?
Cooled lava forms extrusive igneous rock, such as rhyolite, basalt, obsidian, and pumice.
How would viscosity of the lava affect the size of the crystals that forms in the rock as it cools?
If the lava has cooled fast, the Cristal's will be smaller. If the lava cooled slowly, the crystals will be big
Does a igneous rock forms from lava?
Yes, an igneous rock forms when lava is cooled. It is called an extrusive igneous rock (because lava is extruded onto the surface of the earth). A magma pool that did not erupt as lava can cool to become an intrusive rock.
What is the fluid or semi-fluid material from which ingneous rock is formed?
lava
Is cooled lava considered a rock?
Yes. Cooled lava is extrusive igneous rock.
A rock made from cooled magma or lava?
Igneous rock is formed from solidified and cooled magma or lava.
Is metamorphic rock a cooled lava?
No. Cooled lava would be igneous.
What igneous rock is formed from magma or lava cools and hardens?
Cooled magma, lava, or pyroclastic material is igneous rock. Cooled magma forms intrusive igneous rock, while lava and pyroclastic material form extrusive rock. Anything beyond that depends on more specific factors.
What is cooled lava call?
Cooled lava is called a igneous rock once it has completely cooled and hardened. Some people just call it lava rock.
What volcanic rock is cooled lava made up of?
Igneous rock is made up of volcanic rock that is cooled after flowing as lava. Much of this type of rock is made up of sulphur and iron. Crystals also form from this type of melting.
