No. Small crystals form.
Small crystals are likely to form when the solution cools quickly or when there are impurities present that inhibit crystal growth. Large crystals are likely to form when the solution is allowed to cool slowly or when there is a high concentration of solute in the solution.
When magma cools quickly, the crystals that form are typically smaller. This rapid cooling does not allow sufficient time for large crystals to grow, resulting in a fine-grained texture. Conversely, when magma cools slowly, larger crystals can develop due to the extended time available for crystal growth.
False. When lava cools quickly, it typically forms small crystals or an amorphous glass due to the rapid solidification, which doesn't allow large crystals to develop. Large crystals usually form from slower cooling processes, such as in magma that cools underground.
Pumice is made of glass. Glass forms when molten rock cools too quickly for crystals to form.

Fine crystal grain.
Small crystal grains form when molten rock cools quickly. In an extrusive igneous rock, it's referred to as aphanitic texture.
If lava cools quickly, the minerals don't have as much time to form crystals, so the crystals do not become very large. Igneous rocks that cooled quickly and have small crystals are described as "aphanitic" igneous rocks.
Not enough information. Some crystals will break if they cool rapidly, some crystals will not form correctly if the solution cools too quickly.
Pumice doesn't have crystals at all, as it cools too quickly for them to form.
Large crystals with well-formed crystal faces tend to form when the mineral is given enough time to grow undisturbed in a stable environment with plenty of space and nutrients. The slower the cooling or solidification process, the larger and more well-formed the crystals can grow.

If rock cools quickly it does not have time to form large crystals and so it forms small ones. At slower cooling rates there is time to form larger crystals.

Small crystal grains form from rapid cooling of magma resulting in an aphanitic rock texture.
