If a portion of the magma stays undergound and cools, it will become an intrusive igneous rock, with a fairly large crystalline structure. If the remaining portion of the magma reaches the surface, it will cool quickly, with a small crystalline structure and become an extrusive igneous rock. The chemical composition of the two rocks, however, will be identical.
