Answer 2

Hi friend here is your answer

Magma is a complex mixture of molten rock (or part molten). Aside for the minerals, magma can also contain suspended crystals, water, carbon monoxide or other gas bubbles

And when it reaches the surface and becomes lava, it quickly solidifies due to the much lower temperatures.
