Yes, granite is formed from cooling magma.
No. Granite forms from magma, which is liquid rock. There are gasses trapped in the magma, but they only make up a small portion of it.
Rhyolite cools faster from magma (lava) than does granite, which forms from slow cooling of magma deep underground. Granite.
Igneous rocks are formed from minerals that have crystallized from magma. The minerals include quartz, feldspars, amphibole, micas, and the elements oxygen, silicon, iron, manganese, magnesium, and calcium among others.
Granite forms underground and may take millions of years to cool from a state of magma to a solid rock. Some granites are billions of years old, and some granite is forming as you read these words.
Granite is the result of hardened magma. It forms when volcanos erupt, leaving magma on or near the surface of the earth.

granite is all that i know of.
the granite is made out of magma
Magma forms coarse crystalline intrusive igneous rocks such as granite or gabbro, depending on the chemical composition of the magma.
In the volcano/magma chamber, different minerals that make up granite, (feldspar, quartz, etc.) mix to form grainy, large crystals of the different minerals. That is how granite is formed.
Granite is the rock type/magma produced when one melts continental crust. It can also form by fractionation of more basaltic magmas.
No. Granite forms when granitic magma cools deep underground. When granitic magma erupts as lava it cools more quickly and forms a rock called rhyolite.
Granite may form in associate with a volcano if magma high in silica, potassium, and sodium becomes trapped in the magma chamber or other structures underground and cools and hardens in place.
Granite forms deep underground as felsic magma cools, mostly under continents. Basalt forms at or near the surface as mafic magma cools, typically on oceanic plates.
Intrusive igneous rock would form. Granite is an example. If the same magma that formed the granite had reached the surface through volcanic eruption, the extrusive igneous rock rhyolite would form.
