What forms in earths crust when molten material reaches the surface?
When molten material reaches the surface of the Earth, it can solidify into different forms depending on the speed of cooling. If it cools quickly, it forms extrusive igneous rocks like basalt. If it cools slowly underground, it forms intrusive igneous rocks like granite.
Is Basalt intrusive or extrusive?
extrusive it forms when lava from a volcanic eruption cools on the surface.
What type of rock forms when lava cools very quickly?
igneous with small crystals. Extrusive igneous rock forms from the solidification of lava. Rocks such as rhyolite, pumice, obsidian, and basalt. Igneous rocks are formed by magma (inside the earth) or lava (outside earth) that cools and hardens. Extrusive rocks are rocks thathave exited the earths surface.
What term describes an igneous rock that forms quickly on earths surface from cooling lava?
This type of igneous rock is called "extrusive igneous rock." It forms when lava cools and solidifies quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in small mineral grains that are characteristic of rocks like basalt or rhyolite.
When a volcano erupts lava may flow onto the surface. What type of rock does the lava cooling form?
When lava cools on the surface, it forms igneous rock called basalt.
What kind of igneous rock forms when lava cools at earths surface?
Such rock is extrusive igneous rock.

What happens to the surface of earth when lava cools?
It forms new islands
Is Basalt intrusive or extrusive?
extrusive it forms when lava from a volcanic eruption cools on the surface.
When lava cools at Earths surface what igneous rocks form?
Ido what the answer is i looked it up and NOTHING
When volcano lava cools at the surface?
When magma cools at the surface of the Earth, it cools very quickly and hardens on the Earths crust. However, it continues flowing underneath, forming interesting textures.
What is the name of a rock that forms form cooling lava?
The rock that forms from the cooling of lava is called igneous rock. When lava cools and solidifies on the Earth's surface, it is specifically referred to as extrusive igneous rock, such as basalt. If the lava cools slowly beneath the surface, it forms intrusive igneous rock, like granite.
What forms when molten erupts onto earths surface?
