Igneous rocks are created when lava cools and becomes hard. Learn how igneous rocks are formed and discover the two types of igneous rocks: intrusive and extrusive. How Igneous Rocks Are Formed We have all seen a volcano erupt on television or in a movie. They are explosive, and the lava...
Magma can form: ▪ When rock is heated ▪ When pressure is released ▪ When rock changes composition Magma freezes between 700 °C and 1,250 °C Magma is a mixture of many minerals http://.fi.edu/fellows/payton/rocks/create/igneous.htm Felsic: light colored rocks that are rich in...
Major Chemical Elements Forming Igneous Rocks Illustration by J. Johnson Volcanic rocks are typically divided into four basic types according to the amount of silica (SiO2) in the rock (see figure at bottom, Components of Igneous Rocks, for the plutonic equivalents of these rock types): ...

Igneous rock, any of various crystalline or glassy rocks formed by the cooling and solidification of magma, which is a hot (600 to 1,300 °C, or 1,100 to 2,400 °F) molten or partially molten rock. Igneous rocks constitute one of the three principal clas

Types of Igneous Rocks Updated on June 02, 2019 Igneous rocks are those that form via the process of melting and cooling. If they erupt from volcanoes onto the surface as lava, they are calledextrusiverocks. By contrast,Intrusiverocks are formed from magma that cools underground.If the ...
