Acid Lava Dome is a type of volcano that forms when viscous acid lava solidifies quickly to form a volcano with steep convex sides.

∙ 10y agoLava domes are mounds that form when lava piles up over a volcano's vent instead of moving away. This usually happens when the formation of lava is so slow that it does not flow away.

What type of material is ejected from a plug dome volcano?
lava
What volcano type was monserrat volcano?
It is a stratovolcano with a lava dome complex in its crater.
What is a volcanic dome?
I don't know about viscous, but a lava dome is a steep-sided dome of thick lava extruding from a volcanic vent.a viscous lava dome is when the lava from the volcano contains alot of silica. Viscous=sticky. So the lava cools quickly of the sides of the volcano. And often a viscous lava dome volcano is explosive.
Why did the Lassen peak volcano erupt?
Mt. Lassen is a lava dome type of volcano. The domes of lava dome volcanoes grows from within, and commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes.
What type of plate boundary is a lava dome volcano on?
A lava dome is most likely to form at a convergent boundary.
What is an acid lava volcano?

What type of material is ejected from a plug dome volcano?
lava
Is lava dome a type of volcano?
Not exactly. Some volcanoes do consist of simply a lava dome, but most lava domes are found in or on stratovolcanoes.

What type of volcano is Mt Konocti?
Lava dome - If that's what you mean
What type of volcano is El Chichonal?
It is classified as a lava dome.
How are the slope of a volcano and the type of lava that forms the volcano related?
the philosophy of the lava supposodely forms from the specific material of the slope
What type of lava does a lava dome hold?
A lava dome holds very viscous lava, which is why it forms a dome rather than flowing away. Usually it is rhyolite or dacite.
Is a dome volcano the same as a cone volcano. if not - what is a dome volcano?
a dome volcano is not the same as a cone volcano. a dome volcano is a type of volcano, is a roughly circular mound-shaped protrusion resulting from the slow extrusion of viscous lava from a volcano. Usually it extrudes very slowly, but constantly. A cone volcano has an appearance of an upside-down funnel with a hole in the top which the lava shoots out of.
