- In a fireplace, ash is fine grained. Cinders are larger. (Embers are cinder sized and still glowing and can start further fires.)

- The 'ash' and 'cinders' (tephra) ejected from a volcano have no relation to the ash and cinders from a fire. They are small particles of rock and lava blown explosively into the air.

Ash particles are less than 2 mm in diameter. (That is close to 0.08 inch, or 1/16th inch.) They can fall close to the volcano or be blasted into the stratosphere and travel thousands of miles.

Cinders are larger and fall closer to the volcano vent, building up a 'cinder cone'.
