In a volcano, the higher the pressure rises before eruption takes place, the more explosive the eruption will be. Some volcanoes seem to be "gentle flow" as a matter of course (like Mauna Loa in Hawaii). Some seem to be explosive as a matter of course (like Vesuvius in Italy). Others manifest both types of eruptions.

viscosity of magma, dissolve gases, volume of magma erupting,and chemical content of magma
because it is nature
High silica content and high viscosity.
There are two factors that determine how explosive a volcano is. The two factors are the amount of gas that is present in the lava and how easy or difficult that gas can be released into the atmosphere.
water vapor and high in silica
Krakatoa is a volcano that erupted. In the eruption, gases were trapped below the cap of the volcano. The explosive eruption occurred when the pressure was enough to blow the cap off of the volcano.
The volatile content of the magma. Weather water or Ice has ingres to the volcanic vent. The physical stability of the volcano.
Most explosive volcanoes are stratovolcanoes, also called composite volcanoes.

The type of eruption that a composite volcano has is lava flow with cinders and bombs in an explosive eruption

explosive
The weight of the volcano.
No, Mauna Loa is not an explosive volcano. It tends to be non-explosive.
No. Volcanic eruptions in Hawaii are not usually explosive.
Silicon
Not necessarily. A summit eruption may be explosive or effusive. It is considered a summit eruption when material erupts at or near the volcano's peak as opposed to on its flanks.
