Which rock type forms from cooled magma?
what type of rock is formed from magma and cooled on earth surface
Magma is molten material that forms .?
Magma is molten material that when cooled forms a solid called igneous rock
Is all igneous rock formed from lava that cooled on Earths surface?
No, not all igneous rock is formed from lava that cooled on Earth's surface. Some igneous rocks are formed from magma that cooled below the surface, and these are called intrusive igneous rocks. These rocks cool more slowly than lava, allowing for larger mineral crystals to form.
Does heated magma rise or sink?
When magma is being heated it rises. When it is cooled, it sinks.
Is igneous rock is produced when magma cools?
Yes. Igneous rock is the product of cooled magma or lava.
What is the name of a magma cooled on the surface?
When magma cools on the surface it forms igneous rock.
What is Hot magma cooled on earths surface?
Extrusive igneous rock.
What is magma cooled below earths surface called?
Intrusive rock
Which rock type forms from cooled magma?
what type of rock is formed from magma and cooled on earth surface
The type of rock that is formed from magma that cooled above the Earth's surface?
metamorphic
Magma that reaches the Earth's surface is called what?
Magma that reaches the surface is referred to as lava.magma that has reached the earth's surface tends to cool faster, that is why the rock will have more holes in it than a rock that has not reached the earth's surface. magma that has cooled enough to become a rock is known as a igneous rock. but there are two types of igneous rock. ther is intrusive igneous and extrusive igneous. intrusive is when the magma has cooled on the inside. this rock will have large crystals because it has cooled slower and most likely it will have a fine grained texture. extrusive igneous is when magma has reached earths surface (thats when it becomes lava) and has cooled. these rock with either have very small microscopic crystals or no crystals at all because the lava cools so quickly that they do not have enough time to really form.

Why would granite have larger crystals than rocks formed from lava cooled above earth surface?
Because crystals in granite had more time to form as the magma cooled slowly. Crystals that form on the surface are smaller because they cooled really quickly.
Does heated magma rise or sink?
When magma is being heated it rises. When it is cooled, it sinks.
A rock made from cooled magma or lava?
Igneous rock is formed from solidified and cooled magma or lava.
