1. IGNEOUS ROCK Volcanoes eject molten rock Molten rock=magma
Flows when hot and becomes a solid when it cools
Hardened, cooled magma is called igneous rock.

2. Magma
Temperatures of magmas range from about 650° to 1,200°C, depending on their chemical compositions and pressures exerted on them.
Earth’s heat to melt rocks comes from interior
Radioactive decay of elements is main source of heat.
Magma is less dense than surrounding rock, which forces it upwards
When magma reaches Earth’s surface and flows from volcanoes, it is called lava.

6. Instrusive Rocks
Atoms and compounds in the liquid rearrange into new crystals called mineral grains, when magma cools
Rocks form when mineral grains grow together.
Rocks from magma below the surface are called intrusive igneous rocks.

8. Extrusive Igneous Rock
Extrusive Rock forms when magma cools on Earth’s surface
Magma exposed to air and water, thus cools quickly.

9. Volcanic Glass
Pumice, obsidian, and scoria are examples of volcanic glass.
Rocks cooled so quickly few or no mineral grains formed.
Pumice and scoria, gases become trapped in the gooey molten material as it cools.

10. Basaltic Rock Basaltic igneous rocks are dense, dark-colored rocks.
Rich in iron and magnesium and poor in silica.
FE and MG gives them dark color
Basaltic Lava is fluid and free flowing.

11. Granitic and Andesitic Rock
Granitic igneous rocks are light-colored rocks of lower density than basaltic rocks.
Thick and stiff magma, high in silica, and low in Mg and FE.
Andesitic igneous rocks have mineral compositions between those of basaltic and granitic rocks

12. Igneous rock is formed by __________.
A. cooling of hot magma
B. change in pressure
C. compression of loose materials
D. pressure from watery fluids

13. What is the difference between intrusive and extrusive igneous rock?
Intrusive igneous rocks form from magma below Earth’s surface. Extrusive igneous rocks form from lava flowing at Earth’s surface.

14. Which of the following is a volcanic rock that contained trapped gases during its formation?
A. marble
B. pumice
C. sandstone
D. slate
