Igneous rock is formed by the cooling and solidification of magma or lava
Dark igneous rocks usually have higher amounts of heavier elements such as iron. Light-colored igneous rocks tend to be richer in lighter elements like sodium and aluminum.
Igneous rocks can vary in weight depending on factors like mineral composition and density. Overall, igneous rocks tend to be denser and heavier than sedimentary or metamorphic rocks due to their formation from molten magma that cools and solidifies into a dense mass.
Rhyolititcen rocks.
Igneous rocks tend to be formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma or lava. They can have a fine-grained or coarse-grained texture, and may contain minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica. Examples include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
Dark colored rocks.

The word felsic is used to describe igneous rocks that are rich in silica and alkali feldspar. Such rocks tend to be light in color and have a lower density than other igneous rocks.

Not normally. Basalt and gabbro are dark igneous rocks but they are not similar to granites. Most granites tend to be pale as they contain mainly quartz and feldspars.
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.
Olivine and pyroxene are commonly found in igneous rocks that are mafic in composition. These minerals indicate that the rock formed from magma with a higher iron and magnesium content. Mafic igneous rocks tend to be dark in color and have higher densities compared to felsic rocks.
