What are igneous rocks that form from magma that reaches the surface of the earth?
Volcanic (extrusive) igneous rocks. i think is this okay ? :)
What is a geologic situation in which a magma does not form a lava?
Lava is simply magma that reaches the surface of the earth. If a magma flow never is emergent while it is still in liquid form, it cannot be termed lava. An example is a volcanic stock or a laccolith that remains beneath the surface entirely.
A vent at the earth's surface through which magma and gases erupt?
Magma becomes known as lava when it reaches the surface. And when the lava cools it usually forms some type of igneous rock, depending on the chemical composition of the lava. The gases have no common name that I know of. But for the most part they are common gases which include but are not limited to steam, CO2, and traces of sulfur gases.
How do volcanos form in the central valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. And from there it forms valleys.
What do igneous rocks for from?
Igneous rocks form when molten rock (magma) reaches the Earth's surface and cools. It then becomes an igneous rock
Does a volcano form when magma reaches earths surface?
That is correct. When magma travels from the mantle to the crust and reaches the surface, that is a volcano.
What is igneous rocks that form from magma that reaches the surface of the earth?
Extrusive Igneous Rock.
Does a mountin form when a volcano reaches the surface of the water in an ocean?
No, because when a volcano reaches the surface of the water it forms a volcnic island not a mountain
Magma rises up the volcanoes vents soon reaches the surface what kind of rock will it form?
It will form an igneous rock
What does the word lava mean?
lava is rock that is in its molted form ,lava is what magma's called when it reaches the surface.
What rocks originate from the surface of the earth?
Sedimentary rocks form on the Earth's crust, and can form metamorphic rocks when buried. Igneous rocks form under the surface, or when liquid magma reaches the surface as lava.
Does a mountain form when a volcano reaches the surface of the water in an ocean?
No. It is called a volcanic island.

How volcanoes form in the central valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. And from there it forms valleys.
