Viscosity is the measure of a liquids resistance to flow. In the case of magma, the hotter it is, the lower the viscosity.
viscosity is the fluid resistance against flowoil viscosity units is centipoise or centistoke (cp)
Merci - Magma album - was created in 1984.

A magma's viscosity is directly related to its degree of silica content.
The size of the magma chamber and the viscosity of the magma.
viscosity of magma build up of gases
temperature, silica content, and the amount of dissolved gases determine the viscosity of magma. For instance, if the magma is cold, has a high amount of silica and has lots of dissolved gases in it the viscosity will be very high.
Yes, the ease of magma flow is influenced by its viscosity. Magma with low viscosity (more fluid-like) flows more easily, while magma with high viscosity (more sticky) tends to flow less easily and may lead to explosive volcanic eruptions. Viscosity is mainly determined by the magma's temperature, composition, and gas content.
The temperature, composition, and gas content of the magma are the main factors that determine its viscosity. Magma with higher silica content tends to be more viscous, while higher temperatures and lower gas content can decrease viscosity. Additionally, the presence of crystal structures and mineral content within the magma can also influence its viscosity.
No. Ultramafic magma would have a low viscosity.
The force of a volcanic eruption is affected by many factors. They include, viscosity of the magma, its temperature, amount of gas content, and the size of the magma reservoir.
The viscosity of magma affects whether or not magma flows away or piles up during an eruption. Viscosity, along with volatiles (dissolved gases) and volume determine whether you have a peaceful eruption or a very violent one.
Silica content determines viscosity. The higher the silica content the more viscous (slower moving). Ultramafic <45% silica Least viscous Mafic 45-52% Silica Intermediate 53-65% Silica Felsic >65% Silica Highly viscous
Magma with low viscosity
The ease with which it flows or how thin or thick it is. the more solid it is the higher the viscosity. As in Oil the thicker it is the higher the viscosity machine oil low viscosity, gearbox oil high viscosity.
