Lava is the general term for igneous rock that forms on the surface. Extrusive igneous rock is the more technical term.
Magma. Magma rises towards the surface when it's less dense than rock around it. Otherwise, it collects in magma chambers and cools, forming igneous rock.

Names given to different types of igneous intrusions are attributed to their shapes and sizes, as well as how they form within the Earth's crust. Common types include dikes, sills, laccoliths, and batholiths, each with unique characteristics based on their formation processes.
Magma that cools quickly forms into igneous rock, when it cools quickly it becomes a lava rock. Lava cools very quickly at first and forms a thin crust that insulates the interior of the lava flow.

Lava is the name given to any still molten rock that is extruded onto the Earth's surface. When it cools it becomes an extrusive igneous rock such as basalt.

basalt
It is dated from the time it solidifies as rock.

Igneous rocks are usually classified first by their color index. The color index is separated into four categories. Felsic rocks are the lightest and are composed of mostly quartz and potassium feldspar. Intermediate rocks are the second lightest and are made up of mostly plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Mafic rocks are made up of plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene, and amphibole. Ultramafic is made up of mostly olivine, with pyroxene and amphibole.
These are extrusive igneous rocks with an aphanitic texture.
