what type of rock is formed from magma and cooled on earth surface
Granite is formed from molten rock that has cooled. Since it forms underground, however, the molten rock that it forms from is called magma rather than lava.
Igneous rock is formed from the cooling of magma or lava.
Rock formed from cooled magma or lava is called igneous rock. This type of rock forms when molten material from beneath the Earth's surface cools and solidifies, either underground (intrusive) or on the Earth's surface (extrusive). Examples include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
igneous
Cooled and solidified magma that rests below the surface becomes intrusive igneous rock. When magma is erupted onto the surface, then cools and solidifies, it becomes extrusive igneous rock. The major rock classification for cooled magma or lava would be IGNEOUS.

pumice
A rock that is formed when magma cools is called a igneous rock.
The lava can cool in to any type of rock it depends on how it cools. And the type is igneous rock.
metamorphic
Rock formed from cooled magma or lava is called igneous rock. This type of rock forms when molten material from beneath the Earth's surface cools and solidifies, either underground (intrusive) or on the Earth's surface (extrusive). Examples include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
magma is a mixture of several different types of rock.
igneous
Igneous rock is formed from the solidification of magma as it cools.
igneos rock
Continental crust--granite. Oceanic crust--basalt.
