How and where are igneous rocks formed?

Igneous rocks are formed when molten magma cools and solidifies either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive) or on the surface (extrusive). Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools slowly underground, while extrusive igneous rocks are formed from lava that cools quickly on the surface.


What groups of rocks can igneous rocks be formed from?

igneous rocks are formed by magma reaching earths surface and cooling quickly to form extrusive igneous rock.another igneous rock is called intrusive igneous rock. it is formed when magma cools and hardens below the surface.


What are rocks called that are formed when magma cools below the earths surface?

Plutonic rocks, generally coarse grained, interlocking texture, high density. eg. Granite

What are extrusive and intrusive igneous rock?

Extrusive rocks are formed outside of earths surface. Intrusive rocks are formed inside earths surface.


What is the difference between exrusive an intrsive igneous rock?

Extrusive igneous rocks are formed from lava that cools quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in fine-grained textures. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in coarse-grained textures.


When magma cools and crystallize below earths surface the igneous rock formed are called?

When magma cools and crystallizes below Earth's surface, the igneous rocks formed are called intrusive or plutonic igneous rocks. These rocks, such as granite and diorite, typically have large mineral crystals due to the slow cooling process that occurs underground. This slow cooling allows for the growth of visible crystals, distinguishing them from extrusive igneous rocks, which form from lava that cools quickly at the surface.


What igneous rock formed from lava have a fine?

Volcanic (Extrusive) igneous rock, which are formed by lava that comes out of the earths crust, then cools and solidifies rapidly on the earths surface due to exposure to the environmental atmosphere.
