Kilauea is a shield volcano fed by gas-poor basaltic magma. It is the gas in the magma that makes eruptions explosive. Kilauea has occasionally produced explosive eruptions when magma cam in contact with water.

Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma.
gassy magma has more silicon than not so gassy that's why there's loud and quiet explosions by: Rielly Krumbholz

Magma, gas, and obsidian.
That depends on the forc of the eruption and the viscosity of the magma.
heat and pressure pushed magma out of the side vents making it ooze out and also magma shoots out of the crater.
No. Kilauea was formed when the Pacific Plate moved over a hot spot in the Earth's mantle. Magma formed a plume upward into the Earth's crust and formed a volcano: Kilauea. 9 +10 = 21
