What are cone shaped mountains that spew out lava or gas?
volcanos
Liquid is to solid as water is to what?
gas
Is lava flow found on any of the gas giants?
No. Gas giants do not have a solid surface on which lava might flow.
Types of volcanic vents?
Magma or lava vents and gas vents. Also fumarole.
What are mountains formed from the buildup of volcanic lava often take this shape?
This depends upon the viscosity (i.e. how runny the lava is ) and the composition (i.e. the percentage composition of silicon which determines the properties of the lava and how much gas is retained within the lava) of the magma greatly. In Iceland, Hekla is an example of a mountain/volcano and is classed as a shield volcano as it had long, gently inclined sides. However, in Peru where the Nazca plate is being subducted beneath the South American plate rhyolitic eruptions produce steeply sided mountains with thrust faults. The type of the tectonic plate margin determines the type of mountains produced as well as the viscosity and composition.

volcanoes
What makes volcanoes different from other mountains?
Volcanoes will periodically spew out hot gas, ash, or molten rock.
Why are volcano's bad?
Because they spew lava and ash everywhere, which means that it would destroy property and vegetation. Volcanoes also create a poisonous gas for humans called carbon monoxide.
Liquid is to solid as water is to what?
gas
Does lava turn into a gas?
Well all we know right now is that lava produces gas, but not so sure it turns into gas
Why does the gas spew out when filling your tank on a 2001 dodge ram 1500?
Clogged vent line

Magma or lava vents and gas vents. Also fumarole.
Is it Obsidian a natural gas?
Obsidian is a type of glassy lava not a gas.

Is there lava on Jupiter?
