Given that it tends to erupt in a very explosive manner, mount Tambora has a high silica content.

Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
How did the eruption of Mount Tambora impact animal life?
The eruption impacted wildlife because when the volcano erupted it killed a lot of wildlife the were just minding there own business.
Does AA lava have a lot of silica?
no. AA has a relatively low silica content level.
What does granitic magma contain a lot of?
Silica.
Do shield volcanoes have a lot of silica or water?

What is a volcano?
A volcano is a mount (or mountain) that has magma in it. A volcano also is like an earthquake releasing pressure from the inner core of the earth. If there is a lot of pressure to be released this will cause the eruption to be bigger and more destructive, like the volcano Mount Tambora that erupted in 1815.
Does AA lava have a lot of silica?
no. AA has a relatively low silica content level.
Number of houses and buisnesses Mount Tambora destroyed when it erupted in 1815?
okay, lets just say it destroyed a lot of houses. im looking for an answer to this question and no matter what website i look on its not there. sooo this is my best inference yet...
What does granitic magma contain a lot of?
Silica.
Do shield volcanoes have a lot of silica or water?
Water.
Is sand also called silica?
No. Generally, sand is mostly made of silica, but sand varies somewhat but it does vary in composition. Furthermore, silica is found in a lot of materials other than sand.
If a tall shield volcano has been built by many eruptions over thousands of years the magma that helped build the volcano contained?
a lot of silica and only a little water vapor
What is the colour of dry silica gel?
Silica gel is blue in colour. When the silica gel has soaked up a lot of moisture, the silica gel turns to pink. Once the silica gel turns pink it cannot adsorb any more moisture. It needs to be regenerated. This can be accomplished by heating it in an oven. The heat expels the moisture, the silica gel turns blue and becomes reusable
What type of magma containing a lot silica and water vapor?
Felsic magma
