Account with the aids of diagrams for the differences in the shapes of basic lava cone and acidic lava cone?

Its because of the the difference in lava viscosity (Sticky-ness), more viscous lava will settle near the crater, forming acid lava volcanoes. However, less viscous lava will spread out over a large area before solidifying forming a shield volcano, thus there is a difference in the gradients of the slopes. Acid lava volcanoes have steeper slopes and shield volcanoes are flat at the top with gentle slopes. An example of acid lava volcano - Mt Mayon , The Phillipines An example of Shield Volcano - Mauna Loa, Hawaii
