After exposure to the surface, igneous rocks begin the process of weathering. Small particles will be worn and washed away by wind and water and deposited in low lying bodies of water where they may eventually be cemented together by mineral solutions and form sedimentary rock.

They are eroded chemically and mechanically.
Rhyolititcen rocks.
Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of molten materials.
Sedimentary rock can be made up partially of igneous clasts, but igneous rock is igneous rock.
No, fossils are typically found in sedimentary rocks rather than igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and lithification of sediments, making them more likely to preserve fossils due to their layered nature. Igneous rocks, on the other hand, form from the cooling and solidification of molten rock and are less likely to contain fossils.
No, igneous rocks are harder than sedimentary rocks on average.

Igneous rocks
Yes. Volcanic rocks are extrusive igneous rocks.

extrusive igneous rocks =/
Some do. These are called extrusive igneous rocks. However a large portion of igneous rocks form beneath the surface. These are intrusive igneous rocks.
Yes. More exactly, intrusive igneous rocks.
yes, the orange rocks on mars are called igneous rocks!
