The molten rock that is present beneath the surface of the earth is termed as Magma. The molten liquid that gets erupted out of the surface of the Earth is termed as Lava. Lava is also referred to as Liquid Magma.

The temperature of Magma is slightly hotter and ranges from 1300-2400 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature of Lava is slightly colder and ranges between 1300-2200 degrees Fahrenheit.

What is the difference between Magma and Lava?

Lava:

Lava can be defined as the hot molten rock that gets shot out of the surface of the Earth, this is a semi-solid, burning hot substance that comes out of the Earth’s surface. The temperatures at which the molten lava usually vary, however, they range from 1300 – 2200 degrees. Lava is usually categorized based on a number of different factors such as the viscosity and composition of the lava that spews out. It is important to know the types of volcanoes from which this type of lava may emerge.

Magma:

Magma, on the other hand, is more of a molten rock that contains volatile substances within it. These substances usually lie below the surface of the Earth itself. Magma usually contains itself within magma chambers. These chambers usually contain a collection of dissolved gases, suspended crystals and gas bubbles. The heat that is produced within Magma may range from a temperature between 1300 and 2400 degrees.
