If a volcano contained magma with small proportions of water and silica would you predict a nonexplosive eruption or an explosive Why?

This would result in a non-explosive, "runny" eruption, similar to what you get in Hawaii, where the volcano simply pours out lava. Explosive reactions occur when rocks contain large amounts of water and silica, which flash into steam, resulting in a rapid expansion, and thus a dangerously explosive reaction.
