Igneous rocks are formed after solidification of lava (Magma inside earth). They are rich in metals as metals are found deep in earth and hence they come out in molten state with the lava.
Igneous rock
Tephra is produced naturally by volcanic eruptions and refers to the material produced when the volcano erupts. Tephra comes in a range of forms and are classified by size Ash, Lapilli or Volcanic blocks.
This is the description of a volcanic eruption.A eruption.
"Ejected debris" the the solid material shot into the air by an erupting volcano (as opposed to the gasses ejected by the same eruption).
you are asking a seemingly simple question but it has a complex answer. Prior to an eruption you have the forming of the caldera. Then you have the eruption: here are some effusive eruption, central vent eruption,fissure eruption, subaqueous eruption, sub glacial eruption, pyroclastic eruption, ash-flow eruption. The most spectacular of all of them is the pyroclastic eruption. It throws off viscous gas-rich magmas and producesw a great deal of solid volcanic fragments. A volcanic eruption after is called clean up. The included link about Mt St Helens eruption will give you an idea on the potentially explosive power of a volcano.
Whether a volcano should erupt or not depends on the pressure building up in the mantle underneath. In some areas, the solid cap formed over a dormant volcano is sufficient to prevent a new eruption. In this case, the pressure could move away to find a weaker area and a new eruption and the birth of a new volcano could appear.

the actual volcano
A volcano is made of solid rock.
The solid that forms from liquid reactants is called a precipitate.
