It depends on the type of lava. The lava most people think of when they hear the word is basaltic lava. This lava cools into a black rock that may either have a ropey or jagged surface. It will often have bubbles near the surface of a flow. Over time, this rock may turn red as iron in it is oxidized.
Other types of lava may form gray, white, or brownish rocks.
What else can I help you with?
Is cooled lava considered a rock?
Yes. Cooled lava is extrusive igneous rock.
What type of volcano forms from thin layers of cooled lava?
the Philippines volcano's form thin layer of cooled lava but not really cold like freezing
What forms as result of lava that has cooled at the top of a volcano?
When lava cools at the top of a volcano, it forms igneous rocks such as basalt or andesite. These rocks can sometimes create formations like lava domes or hardened lava flows.
What brought about the solidification of volcanic lava?
It simply cooled down. Lava is liquid rock, so when it is exposed it cools and sets, just like melted wax does.
Rocks that are melted by heat and then cooled are called what?
Igneous rock is formed from magma or lava that has cooled and solidified.
Is metamorphic rock a cooled lava?
No. Cooled lava would be igneous.
Is cooled lava considered a rock?
Yes. Cooled lava is extrusive igneous rock.
What do an obsidian rock look like?
Obsidian is a beautiful rock. It's description is pretty simple, it is a rock that formed out of cooled lava, and is black in color.
What happened during the eruption of mtvesuvius?
Mount Vesuvius is at next to Pompeii, Italy. It erupted and covered all of Pompeii in lava. The lava cooled other the peope, freezing thyem like statues. If you peel away the now cooled lava, you will see people's bones. You can see two pompeii people covered by cooled lava.
What is cooled lava call?
Cooled lava is called a igneous rock once it has completely cooled and hardened. Some people just call it lava rock.
A rock made from cooled magma or lava?
Igneous rock is formed from solidified and cooled magma or lava.
What types of rocks are formed from a quickly cooled lava flow?
Cooled lava produces extrusive igneous rock.
What type of volcano forms from thin layers of cooled lava?
the Philippines volcano's form thin layer of cooled lava but not really cold like freezing
Which rock looks like glass if it is cooled quickly?
your thinking of lava rocks probably
How would viscosity of the lava affect the size of the crystals that forms in the rock as it cools?
If the lava has cooled fast, the Cristal's will be smaller. If the lava cooled slowly, the crystals will be big
What forms as result of lava that has cooled at the top of a volcano?
When lava cools at the top of a volcano, it forms igneous rocks such as basalt or andesite. These rocks can sometimes create formations like lava domes or hardened lava flows.
What is cooled to make igneous rocks?
lava
