Why is lava and magma not a rock?
Lava and magma are not rocks because they are liquids and cant harden because they are to hot to harden and cant cool themselves down long enough to form a hard structure. Magma and lava is rock - it's just been superheated by the Earth's core.
How is molten formed and what type of rock does it create when it harden?
rock is melted to form molten rock, then as the lava hardens, it forms any type of igneous rock
How does hot lava cool and harden?
Lava cools as anything else does; it loses heat to cooler surroundings. As it cools its atoms and ions slow down and are eventually locked in place by bonds with neighboring atoms an ions. The lava is essentially freezing.
How are Pillow Lava and Pahoehoe lava the same?
Both pillow lava and pahoehoe lava are types of basaltic lava that form during submarine volcanic eruptions. They both have smooth, ropy surfaces, caused by the flow of lava, and are relatively low in viscosity.
What causes lava to be runny and fluid?
Silica content of lava, as well as the temperature of the lava.
What rock is formed when magma and lava cool and harden?
Igneous Rock.
What happens to magma and lava when they coll and harden?
it turs to rock
How is lava rock formed and what is the process behind its creation?
Lava rock is formed when molten lava from a volcano cools and solidifies on the Earth's surface. This process involves the lava cooling rapidly, either in the air or in water, which causes it to harden into a rock-like structure. Over time, the lava rock can weather and erode, eventually breaking down into smaller pieces.
What happens after lava harden and turnes into igneous?
It hardens and turns it to rock.
Which type of rock Froms after magma or lava cools and harden?
Igneous rocks.
What type of rock formed after magma or lava cooland harden?
Igneous rock forms after magma or lava cools and hardens. Examples include basalt, granite, and obsidian.

What makes a new crust layer?
Volcanic activity in which lava and magma cool and harden into rock and stone.
Was marble formed by heat and pressure or harden lava?
Marble is a metamorphic rock so it was formed by heat and pressure. :)
How does hot lava cool and harden?
Lava cools as anything else does; it loses heat to cooler surroundings. As it cools its atoms and ions slow down and are eventually locked in place by bonds with neighboring atoms an ions. The lava is essentially freezing.
What does melting do to a igneous rock?
Melting causes an igneous rock to form into lava/magma.
