What type of volcano forms tuff pumice and pea sized pieces of basalt?
Your probably in dekalb county, right? i am too. It's a cinder.
Is volcanic ash pebble-sized particles?
No. Pebble-sized particles from a volcano are called lapilli. Ash is sand-sized or smaller.
What kind of rocks grapefruit sized thrown from a nearby volcano what are they called?
volcanic bombs
Grammar A volcano erupts the same like the science project you are doing for the science fair During your research you found out that the volcano?
it erupts the same as a full sized magma filled volcanoe therefore a both volcanoes erupted the same way
How is greywacke different from scoria?
They are two very different rocks. Graywacke is a clastic sedimentary rock, specifically a type of sandstone. It is composed of sand-sized grains of quartz, felspar, and other rock particles with a matrix of silt and clay. Scoria is an extrusive igneous rock characterized by a dark color and holes called vesicles. It is similar to pumice, though denser. It is formed when a volcano explosively ejects lava. Gas bubbles form in the lava and are locked in place when it cools into a rock.

Is pumice small?
Not necessarily. Some chucks of pumice can be boulder sized.
Why does basalt have small sized crystals?
it cooled quick
How does a seamount form?
A seamount forms when a volcano builds up and rises from the ocean floor creating a small sized mountain. This is a seamount.
What are the effects and cause of a supervolcanol?
A super volcano is a huge sized volcano that can erupt, the eruption will create crater sized holes around the eruption.
Is volcanic ash pebble-sized particles?

Does volcano ash have pebble sized particles?
No. Ash consists of sand sized particles and smaller. Pebble sized particles are called lapilli.
Is Mt Saint Helens a big sized volcano?
Yes.
What kind of rocks grapefruit sized thrown from a nearby volcano what are they called?
volcanic bombs
What is pumice and what causes pumice to be light enough to float on water?
Pumice has an extremely low density due to its vesicular nature. Obsidian is not characteristically vesicular like pumice and its density is greater. Therefore, in equally sized samples pumice is lighter.
Do Volcanic Eruptions occur in predictable manner?
Not usually. It might be close to human prediction, but not very often. For example, take Pinatubo, in the Philippines. Everybodythought that they knew what was going to happen, but the volcano turned the tables. Eventually, everybody within a certain range of the volcano had to evacuate. Nobody ever thought that it would be so violent as to make it look like it was midnight instead of noon, nor did they expect good-sized chunks of pumice to hail down like rain.
