Lava is only actually called Lava when it comes out of the earth. Before that when it is inside the earth, it is refered to as Magma. So, when boiling hot Magma breaks through the earth it becomes Lava and cools forming a black, hard, rock-like substance. :)

When a solid gets hot, its particles gain energy and begin to vibrate more vigorously. As the temperature increases, these vibrations can cause the solid to expand.
