What happens right after lava cools?
The molten lava solidifies into solid rock on cooling.
Is lava a liquid or a gas?
Lava is a liquid. It is molten rock that flows like a thick fluid when erupted from a volcano.
Which layer of the earth produces lava and molten rock?
The mantle is the source of molten rock. This molten material can, if the tectonics are right, penetrate up through the solid outer mantle and the crust to deliver lava, which is molten rock (magma) that has reached the surface of the earth.
Is lava cooling into lava rocks a chemical change?
No. This is simply a change of state from liquid to solid. It is a physical change.
What is the difference between lava and molten rock?
Lava refers specifically to molten rock that flows on the surface of the Earth during a volcanic eruption. Molten rock, on the other hand, is the hot, liquid rock below the Earth's surface that has not yet erupted. Essentially, all lava is molten rock, but not all molten rock is lava.
Can a rocks exist in a state other than a solid?
Volcanoes spew lava. Lava is molten rock. Molten rock is liquid.
What happens right after lava cools?
The molten lava solidifies into solid rock on cooling.
What is it when molten lava changes into solid rock?
Igneous Rock
What are some examples of liquid to solid?
molten lava to stone
How are lava and magma and igneous rock related?
Magma is molten rock under ground whereas molten rock that flows out of the ground is lava and igneous rock is solid when the lava or magma hardens.
Is molten lava hardening into a rock a physical change?
It's a physical change - more intermolecular bonds (bonds between different molecules) are formed due to the cooling of the matter, and the state of matter changes from liquid to solid. The chemical makeup of the lava does not change.
Is lava a liquid or a gas?
Lava is a liquid. It is molten rock that flows like a thick fluid when erupted from a volcano.

Which layer of the earth is completely solid?
the earth's inner core is solid, and the crust is solid, obviously, because we can walk on it.
Is lava a plasma?
Magma is not plasma since plasma is neither solid ,liquid or gas while magma is always solid when cool and liquid when hot.
Is lava cooling into lava rocks a chemical change?
No. This is simply a change of state from liquid to solid. It is a physical change.
