What is a volcano explosive index?

a cinder con volcano is an explosive volcano

The silica of were the volcano erupts usually is what determines if a volcano is explosive or non-explosive. If the silica content is low that means the volcano will be non-explosive and if the silica content is high the volcano will most likely be explosive.

VEI volcano explosive index volcanoes go up to 8 VEI

Kilauea is an explosive volcano.

the least explosive volcano is a shield volcano, baby!

No, Mauna Loa is not an explosive volcano. It tends to be non-explosive.

is akutan volcano explosive or nonexplosive

explosive

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.

A volcano is explosive or quiet depending on the amount of viscosity in the volcano (how thick it is depending on the gases).

An explosive volcano will form rocks such as scoria, pumice, and tuff.

//68/*+ +i+t is an explosive volcano

Kilauea is a non explosive volacano.

It is a Explosive shield volcano.

Mount Shasta is Explosive.

They aren't explosive. They are non-explosive. And they have calm lava flows.

Explosive because u suck

The Yellowstone volcano has produced both explosive and effusive ("quiet") eruptions. The super eruptions for which it is most famous are explosive.

Tectnically it's both explosive and nonexplosive because it's a composite stratovolcano. Though it has been acting more of a explosive volcano lately.

A composite volcano is both explosive and non-explosive. Although, they are very short lived. A composte volcano goes extinct less than 100 years after it has its first eruption.

No. A supervolcano is a volcano that is capable of producing extremely large explosive eruptions. Kilauea is a shield volcano. Most of its eruptions are non-explosive or only mildly explosive.

Yes. Stratovolcanoes usually alternate between explosive and non-explosive eruptions.

It is explosive (it is a stratovolcano). In a worst-case scenario, more than 400,000 people would have to be evacuated from the proximity of the volcano: up to 30 km / 19 mi from the cone.

It is an explosive volcano. Mount Rainier is a stratovolcano, characterized by layers of ash from explosive eruptions and cooled lava flows from effusive eruptions. The high viscosity and gas content of its magma are the reason for its explosive nature.

Composite volcanoes can produce both explosive and non-explosive eruptions. They are best-known for their explosive eruptions, however.
