Magma occurs mostly beneath the earths crust in the mantle. When it erupts out of a volcano or seeps out of cracks in the crust it is called lava.

The intensity of a volcanic eruption is determined by?

The material inside the volcano.


What do you call the part inside a volcano where magma collects in a pocket?

Lava collects inside a Magma Chamber. "When an erupting volcano empties a shallow-level magma chamber, the edifice of the volcano may collapse into the voided reservoir, thus forming a steep, bowl-shaped depression called a caldera" (Quoted from How Volcanoes Work at http:/wwwzperiodzgeologyzperiodzsdsuzperiodzedu/how_volcanoes_work/Calderaszperiodzhtml)


Why did mount vesuvius erupt in Pompeii?

Because Pompeii is located on the slopes of the volcano.


What happens inside a mountain before eruption?

Each volcano is different, but some show changes in temperature, the crater may vent more or change shape, earthquakes often happen, cracks form, the area around it may have more steam vents, new mud pots, or gas vents. Some just blow with no warning.


Which is more likely to be dangerous a volcano that erupts frequently or a volcano that has been inactive for 100 years why?

A volcano that erupts frequently keeps pressures down on the inside of the volcano. People in the area become familiar with the signs it is about to erupt. But a volcano that has sat dormant will fool people into thinking the mountain is safe, even 'dead'. New generations never experienced the volcano erupting. They may have built houses and businesses too close to the mountain. When it erupts, the volcano will have up to 100 years of pressures built up behind the eruption. It might not give any warning signs before it erupts. So not only will people be caught off guard, living too close, the eruption may be so large that people cannot get away fast enough.

What caused the eruption of the Arenal volcano in Costa Rica on June 29th 1968?

All volcanoes erupt for the same reason: magma making its way to the surface of the water inside the volcano, where it turns into steam and gas. The steam and gas propels the magma from the volcano, causing the eruption.

How do volcanoesform?

Volcanoes form when magma (liquid rock inside the earth) reaches the surface. Depending on the type and duration of the eruption lava and or tephra can pile up to make a volcano
