Magma is mineral material that is in liquid form due to it's high temperature, and usually contains bubbles of gas. When it cools (below about 1400 degrees F) it becomes a solid.
It will form granite if it cools underground and rhyolite if it cools at the surface.
It becomes volcanic Lava. It will then travel down in a river of Lava until it cools down enough so that all of the movement stops. It will them become volcanic rock, that is a solid.
Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.

When magma cools down it forms a type of rock called igneous rock. Igneous rock can cool inside the earth or it can cool after it has come out on the earth's surface. When it is formed inside it is called intrusive but when it is on the earth's surface it is called extrusive.
It cools and becomes solid
Igneous rock forms when magma cools and becomes solid.
The same way any solid forms from a liquid - the liquid magma cools off and becomes solid. This usually happens when the magma comes to the cooler surface of the earth as lava, but it can occur very slowly inside of the earth as the magma gradually cools.

Minerals are formed from magma when the lava cools and hardens to produce a solid
Magma does not dry. Drying implies that the magma becomes solid by loss of water. In reality it becomes solid due to a drop in temperature. So, in reality it freezes. When magma solidifies it becomes intrusive igneous rock.
When magma solidifies, it becomes igneous rock.
Rocks are formed when magma cools and solidifies either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rocks) or on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks). As the molten magma cools, it crystallizes and hardens into solid rocks like granite or basalt.
It becomes volcanic Lava. It will then travel down in a river of Lava until it cools down enough so that all of the movement stops. It will them become volcanic rock, that is a solid.
When the magma cools it hardens, turning from sort of a liquid into a solid. Just like if you melted cheese it would eventually harden back to its regular solid state.
The magma spills over the ridge and pushes the old sea floor away toward a subduction zone where the old sea floor melts.
