What buried the town of Pompeii lava or magma?

Neither. The town of Pompeii was buried by pumice which over the years hardened. Lava and magma are virtually the same thing. Magma is the molten material in the earth. Igneous rock is formed from it when it cools. Lava is a liquid rock which also can solidify into lava stone. Unless you're a vulcanologist, and have to be scientifically picky, consider lava as an "outside" liquid rock and magma as an "inside" liquid rock.Neither.

Are molten rock and lava the same thing in different places?

Molten rock that has been erupted onto Earth's surface is known as lava. Molten rock within the Earth is known as magma.


Is magma more dense then rock?

No. Magma varies in density, but it will be less dense than a solid rock of the same composition.


When does magma become lava?

It should be magma is the hottest because it is usually molten rock that has not reached the surface during an eruption.Lava is 2nd hottest. It is the molten rock we see when a crack in the crust of the earth or a volcano eruption allows molten rock from beneath the crust to come up.


Is molten rock another word for magma?

Yes, molten rock and magma are essentially the same thing - a hot, fluid material made up of rock-forming minerals, gases, and fluids beneath the Earth's surface. Once it reaches the surface it is called lava.


What happens if the magma has the same density as the rock around it?

If the magma has the same density as the rock around it, it will likely stay in place without rising or sinking. This can lead to the formation of magma chambers or magma pockets within the surrounding rock, potentially resulting in volcanic activity if pressure builds up.


Is magma the same as molten rock?

Yes. Technically, magma that appears on the surface of the Earth is called lava.


What forms from melted minerals?

ALL minerals crystallise from molten materials. Magma consists of minerals. It is easy to believe that all magma is the same, but magmas are as different as rocks.
