The igneos rock is the most usual rock to form.
Igneous rocks can become sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion, deposition, compaction and cementation.
That is false. The 3 main types of rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic
Mount Rainier is an active volcano. Similar to many other volcanoes it has a large assortment or rocks, a lot of granite as these rocks are carried out from the magma chamber. There are other rocks such as basalt, Scoria, sandstone, mudstone, shale, limestone, quartize, hornfels, slate and marble.
Pumice and obsidian. There are others but these two are the most common. It also depends the type of volano and the geology of the area in which the volcano forms.

From lava that came from volcanoes. They harden to form igneous rocks.
what was granite before it became igneos rocks?
Crystal size in igneous rocks is controlled by the rate of cooling whereby the slower the rate, the larger the size of crystal.

Yes the rocks that make up Mount Everest were formed on the bottom of the sea/ocean, this is proven by the fossils of sea creatures found at the summit. When the Indian subcontinent crashed into Asia this forced the rocks upwards to form the Himalayas which include Mount Everest.

Basically, all types of Volcanoes. Molten Rock, also called Lava, and Magma are Igneous Rock. They are the rock that comes out of an erupting Volcano.
