Igneous rocks form when magma from inside the Earth moves toward the surface or is forced above the Earth's surface as lava and ash by a volcano.
Many igneous rocks can be identified by the position of their minerals. The minerals usually fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

What term is used to describe how to measure the reflectivity of a surface?

Leya [2.2K]

The term used to describe how to measure how reflective the surface is, is the surface albedo. Surface albedo represents the ratio of irradiance reflected to the irradiance recieved by a surface. The proportion reflected is not only determined by properties of the surface itself, but also by the spectral and angular distribution of a solar radiation reaching the Earth's surface.
