Is basaltic magma or granitic magma hotter?
Baslatic magma is hotter.
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
Are pyroclasts formed by basaltic magma or andesitic magma?
Pyroclasts can be formed of any type of magma. However, they are more likely to form with andesitic than basaltic magma. Rhyolitic magma will also readily form pyroclasts.
Are Basaltic lavas generally hotter and more viscous than andesite lavas?
Basaltic lavas are hotter, but less viscous than andesitic lavas.
Are Basaltic lavas are generally hotter and more viscous than andesite lavas?
No. Basaltic lavas are hotter and less viscous than andesitic lavas.

What list places the magma What list places the magma types in order of decreasing?
basaltic,andesitic,rhyolitic
What are the 3 types of magma?
basaltic magma ,Andesitic magma and Rhyolitic magma
Is andiestic magma high in silica?
Andesitic magma has intermediate silica content. Rhyolite has the highest(>68%) and Basaltic the least.
What are 3 kinds of magma?
Basaltic lava, Andesitic lava, and Rhyolitic Lava :] (glad to help)
What is magma composition of Mount Tambora?
It is that it has high silica content
What are the three main types of magma what factor determines these classifications?
The three main types of magma are basaltic magma, andesitic magma, and rhyolitic magma. They are classified according to their mineral composition. Basaltic magma is composed of SiO2 45-55 wt%, high in Fe, Mg, Ca, low in K, Na. Andesitic magma is composed of SiO2 55-65 wt%, intermediate. in Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, K. Rhyolitic magma is composed of SiO2 65-75%, low in Fe, Mg, Ca, high in K, Na.
What is Magma that is high in silica and produces explosive eruption is called?
Rhyolitic magma. Boom! Basaltic magma is its exact opposite, while andesitic magma is in between the two.
