What type of rock is charcoal rock?
It is called igneous rock. This means that it's origins were originally cooled magma which solidifies. Note that it can also be metamorphic.
What type of rock is formed when an igneous rock is cooled very rapidly?
When magma is cooled, it forms an igneous rock. When magma is cooled rapidly, that igneous rock is of the category called "extrusive" or "volcanic". When the magma is cooled very rapidly, the extrusive igneous rock formed will probably be holohyaline (glassy) in texture, or foamy like pumice.However if you take an igneous rock that is already rock and cool that very rapidly it will probably shatter owing to thermal stress. That might result in the formation of tuff.
What determines the type of mineral formed by cooling magma?
The rate of cooling of the magma determines the type of mineral formed by the magma or lava..
What are the similarities between the formation processes of igneous sedimentary and metamorphic rocks?
Igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma. This forms a rock that is uniform in composition, and sometimes contains air pocketed texture from the process of cooling. Sedimentary rock is formed of small bits of dirt and stone that bind together after they settle as sediment. This rock is usually distinguishable by the flecks of different types of rock and dirt. Metamorphic rock is any type of rock that is transformed by heat, pressure, or chemical changes. It often becomes denser and smoother than the rock from which it changed.
What type of magma does cotopaxi have?
blue the cotopaxi volcano has red magma when turned to rock. it also has a high silica content
What type of rock is formed after magma or lava is cooled?
pumice
Type of rocked formed when lave or magma cools?
A rock that is formed when magma cools is called a igneous rock.
The type of rock that is formed from magma that cooled above the Earth's surface?
metamorphic
What type of rock is formed from the magma that is cooled above earth's surface?
Igneous rock. the definition of igneous: Formed by solidification from a molten state.
Which rock type forms from cooled magma?
what type of rock is formed from magma and cooled on earth surface
What type of rock that forms from magma or lava is rock?
Igneous rock is formed from the cooling of magma or lava.
Is granite a type of cooled lava?
Granite is formed from molten rock that has cooled. Since it forms underground, however, the molten rock that it forms from is called magma rather than lava.
What is rock formed from cooled magma or lava?
Rock formed from cooled magma or lava is called igneous rock. This type of rock forms when molten material from beneath the Earth's surface cools and solidifies, either underground (intrusive) or on the Earth's surface (extrusive). Examples include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
What kind of rock is cooled magma?
The lava can cool in to any type of rock it depends on how it cools. And the type is igneous rock.
What type of rock can become magma?
Cooled and solidified magma that rests below the surface becomes intrusive igneous rock. When magma is erupted onto the surface, then cools and solidifies, it becomes extrusive igneous rock. The major rock classification for cooled magma or lava would be IGNEOUS.
