The rock that forms from the cooling of magma is called igneous rock. When magma cools and solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, it creates intrusive igneous rocks, such as granite. If magma erupts onto the surface and cools quickly, it forms extrusive igneous rocks, like basalt. The texture and mineral composition of the rock depend on the cooling rate and the chemical composition of the magma.

What is the name of a rock that forms form cooling lava?
The rock that forms from the cooling of lava is called igneous rock. When lava cools and solidifies on the Earth's surface, it is specifically referred to as extrusive igneous rock, such as basalt. If the lava cools slowly beneath the surface, it forms intrusive igneous rock, like granite.
Does sedimentary rock form from the cooling of magma?
No. Igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma.
What type of rock forms due to heating and cooling?
Sedimentary rock forms due to the accumulation and compression of sediments, while metamorphic rock forms due to the alteration of existing rock through heat and pressure. Igneous rock forms from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
