Molten rock that flows onto the seafloor and hardens as it cools is called basalt. Basalt is the most common type of lava erupted at mid-ocean ridges and forms the oceanic crust.
Igneous
Rocks that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called Igneous rocks.
Rocks that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called Igneous rocks.
When molten rock cools and hardens, it is a physical change because the composition of the rock remains the same. The change in state from liquid to solid does not alter the chemical makeup of the rock.

When molten material from beneath Earth's surface cools and hardens, it forms igneous rocks. Igneous rocks can be either intrusive (formed underground) or extrusive (formed on the surface), depending on where the cooling and hardening process occurs.
When molten rock cools and hardens, it forms igneous rock. Igneous rocks can be classified as intrusive (formed beneath the Earth's surface) or extrusive (formed on the Earth's surface). Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
A batholith.
Igneous rock is formed when molten magma cools and solidifies. As the magma cools, it hardens and crystallizes, creating igneous rock. This process can happen underground or on the Earth's surface, depending on where the magma cools.
When molten material from beneath the Earth's surface cools but doesn't harden, it forms a type of rock called volcanic glass, or obsidian. Obsidian is a black, glassy rock formed from rapidly cooled lava, which prevents the growth of mineral crystals typically found in other types of rock.
Igneous rock is what forms when magma cools and hardens.
