Volcanic rocks are classified as extrusive igneous rocks, forming from the solidification of lava.
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
Rhyolititcen rocks.
A composite or stratovolcano typically has light and heavy rocks. These types of volcanoes are characterized by alternating layers of lava flows and volcanic ash, which can contain both lighter materials like pumice and heavier rocks like basalt.
Sedimentary rocks: Metamorphic rocks
igneous volcanic rocks
Yes. Volcanic rocks are extrusive igneous rocks.
No. Volcanic rocks are made of the same materials that other rocks are.
No. Only extrusive igneous rocks are volcanic.
Volcanic rocks are classified as extrusive igneous rocks, forming from the solidification of lava.
No. Volcanic rocks are extrusive. Intrusive rocks are sometimes called plutonic.
Volcanic rocks are hot if they are freshly erupted. Otherwise, no.
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
No. Volcanic rocks are igneous (although not all igneous rocks are volcanic). Sedimentary rocks are made of sediment naturally cemented together. However, volcanic (or extrusive igneous) rocks can be eroded into sediment, which can be cemented, compacted, or otherwise become sedimentary rock such as sandstone or conglomerate. It is then not considered igneous.
