What else can I help you with?
What do you call rocks that have been formed from the hot molten within the Earth's crust that has cooled and hardened?
Igneous rocks.
What is the Cause of extrusive igneous rocks?
They are rocks that formed from cooled lava on the earth's surface.
What do you call rocks that have been formed from the hot molten material within the earth's crust that has cooled and hardened?
Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of molten materials.
Which rock type forms from cooled magma?
what type of rock is formed from magma and cooled on earth surface
What type of igneous rock forms within Earth's surface?
Intrusive igneous rocks form within the Earth
If magma crystallizes before it reaches Earths surface will it form an igneous rock?
Yes, if magma crystallizes below Earth's surface it will form igneous rocks like granite or diorite. These rocks are known as intrusive igneous rocks, as they formed from magma that cooled and solidified within the Earth's crust.
What rocks forms when magm cools within th earth?
If the magma cools on the surface of the crust, it is called extrusive igneous rock, such as pumice, basalt or rhyolite. If the magma cools inside the crust, it is called intrusive igneous rock, such as granite.
What are rocks that form as a resutlt of cooling magma?
Rocks that form as a result of cooling magma are igneous rocks. They can be classified as intrusive rocks (cooled slowly beneath the Earth's surface) or extrusive rocks (cooled quickly at the Earth's surface). Examples include basalt, granite, and rhyolite.
Which igneous rocks form below earth's surface?
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive igneous rocks. Examples include granite, diorite, and gabbro. These rocks cool and solidify slowly, allowing large crystals to form.
Is all igneous rock formed from lava that cooled on Earths surface?
No, not all igneous rock is formed from lava that cooled on Earth's surface. Some igneous rocks are formed from magma that cooled below the surface, and these are called intrusive igneous rocks. These rocks cool more slowly than lava, allowing for larger mineral crystals to form.
What does it mean when igneous rocks have crystals that are strongly joined together?
they have cooled slowly under the earth
Rocks that are melted by heat and then cooled are called what?
Igneous rock is formed from magma or lava that has cooled and solidified.
