What kind of eruption is produced when basaltic lava that is low in silica flows from a volcano?
quiet nonexplosive eruptionsquiet nonexplosive eruptionsquiet nonexplosive eruptions
What kind of eription is produced when basaltic lava that is low in silica flows from a volcan?
A quiet, non explosive eruption. Silica-high lava produces explosive eruptions.
How does magma composition and the resulting eruption affect the form of a volcano?
If the composition of the magma is high in silica, the eruption will be explosive. The Eruption of Mt. St. Helens was an explosive eruption. If the composition of the magma is low in silica, it will produce a quiet eruption. The eruption(s) of Mt. Kilauea are quiet eruptions.

Two factors control whether an eruption will be explosive or quiet?
Water vapor and silica.

It was a quiet eruption and it was low in silica
