It forms an igneous rock. If it is within the Earth, then it is an intrusive igneous rock (e.g. granite) and if it is erupted onto Earth's surface then it is an extrusive igneous rock (e.g. basalt).

through volcanoes, lava comes out and when it cools it turns into igneous rock.
What kind of igneous rock forms near the Earth's surface?
Rhyolite is an igneous rock that forms near the Earth's surface through the rapid cooling and solidification of silica-rich magma.
What kind of rock forms from magma that cools below the earth's surface?
Intrusive Igneous Rock.
What kind of rock forms from the lava of an erupting volcano?
Igneous rock forms from the lava of an erupting volcano. This rock is created when molten rock cools and solidifies, either on the surface (extrusive igneous rock) or beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rock). Examples of igneous rocks include basalt, rhyolite, and granite.
What kind of rock forms when hot molten rock cools deep under the surface of the earth?
These are igneous rocks.
What kind of rock is igneous rock that forms on earth's surface?
Basalt is extruded from volcanoes and MOR (mid ocean ridges). It actually forms in the earth's mantle and just solidifies on the earth's surface.
When lava flows and cools on Earth's surface it forms what kind of rock?
Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidificatio of magma or lava.
