Compared with the lava in composite volcanoes, hawaiian lava has a slow silica content, is runny, and erupts at a higher temperature.
Tambora was a composite cone.
A composite cone is the type of volcano that consists of layers of lava flows and pyroclastic material. A stratovolcano is an example of a composite cone.

Mount Kenya is neither a composite cone, cinder cone, nor a shield cone. It is a complex stratovolcano made up of layers of lava and ash.

shield, cinder cone, composite, and dome. They produce basaltic lava, rhyolite lava and andesite lava.
The Arenal Volcano is a cinder cone volcano
Composite VolcanoesComposite Volcanoes. Composite volcanoes are tall, cone shaped mountains in which alternate layers of lava alternate with layers of ash. This happens when smooth lava flows alternate with explosive eruptions of lava fragments.
A volcano whose cone is made up of alternate layers of ash and lava.
The two main types of cone volcanoes are stratovolcanoes and cinder cone volcanoes. Stratovolcanoes are large, steep-sided volcanoes composed of layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic rocks. Cinder cone volcanoes are smaller, symmetrical volcanoes formed from pyroclastic material ejected during eruptions.
Mount Aso is a composite cone volcano, also known as a stratovolcano. It is characterized by its steep-sided profile and alternating layers of lava and volcanic ash.
