It is according to what kind of material the lava is made from. If there are different minerals in the lava, then it is according to what temperature the mineral returns to the solid state, or a rock. Some minerals have a liquid temperature, close to the liquid temperature of another minerals, and chances are they will form in the same rock. Temperature determines what the rocks will become. Like gold is found in quartz. Their liquid temperatures are close so they form together.

What is the change of state when magma crystallizes from igneous rock?

Your question as phrased is unclear. I will proceed to answer both interpretations I have of your question. Note: When magma crystallizes, it forms igneous rocks. 1) What is the change of state when magma forms from igneous rock? - Melting. Rocks are the solid state of matter and magma is the liquid state (although it can be a very viscous liquid). Changing something from solid to liquid is melting. 2) What is the change of state when magma crystallizes to form igneous rocks? - Solidification/Freezing. Magma becomes too cold to continue in a liquid state, it solidifies and crystallizes into solid igneous rocks: freezing.


Can magma melt?

No, magma is already in a molten state. It is a mixture of molten rock, gases, and solids that exists beneath the Earth's surface. Magma can solidify to form igneous rocks when it cools and crystallizes.


What are the changes of the state that happens when metamorphic rock changes into magma?

Solids become liquids. A phase change.


What is the sign of entropy when liquid crystallizes to solid?

When a liquid crystallizes to a solid, the sign of entropy is negative. This is because the process involves a transition from a disordered state (liquid) to a more ordered state (solid), resulting in a decrease in the randomness or disorder of the system. Consequently, the entropy of the system decreases during this phase transition.


Is snowflakes foreming in too a cloud chemical change?

The formation of snowflakes in a cloud is primarily a physical change rather than a chemical change. As water vapor in the atmosphere cools, it undergoes condensation and crystallizes into ice crystals, which then grow into snowflakes. This process involves changes in state (from gas to solid) but does not alter the chemical composition of the water molecules.


What is the mantle's materials?

It's very high temperature down in mantle so it resulting a solid rock to change into "molten" state. The molten material in the mantle is magma.


What word describes rock in its liquid state?

Magma.


What is the solvent in magma?

There is no solvent in magma. Rocks turn to a liquid state because of super-heating, not because the solids were dissolved in any solvent.


When the force of magma pushing upwards is equal to the force of the rock pushing downwards the system is said to be on a state of what?

When the force of magma pushing upwards equals the force of the rock pushing downwards, the system is said to be in a state of equilibrium. This balance prevents the magma from continuing to rise or the rock from collapsing further.


What is magmatic limbo?

Magmatic limbo refers to a state in which magma is neither erupting nor solidifying but is instead trapped within the Earth's crust. This state can occur when the conditions for eruption are not met, leading to the accumulation of magma in magma chambers. This prolonged storage can affect volcanic activity and the evolution of the magma itself, potentially resulting in future eruptions or changes in the composition of the magma. Understanding magmatic limbo is crucial for assessing volcanic hazards and predicting future eruptions.


Is change of state a chemical change?

No, change of state is a physical change.


A change of state is a type of what change?

A change of state is a molecular change.
