These are igneous rocks.
Explanation:
Pumice belongs to igneous rocks. It is porous (it includes void volüme inside).
Obsidian is dense compared to pumice. Both pumice and obsidian are glassy (amorphous,non-crystalline, and having non-discernable mineral proportions).
Basalts belong to extrusive-fine igneous rock group. Basalts have feldpars, highly mafic minerals, and few dark minerals. Basalts are fine (granular) extrusive igneous rocks.
