Why are volcanoes in the ring of fire more deadly than others?

In the ring of fire, there are more active plates and they move a lot and makes the volcanoes erupt violently and often. - Tyler <3 Hope this helps.


What is the difference between a composite and shield a Volcano?

Shield Volcanoes erupt less violently and flows further then composite volcanoes. A composite volcano erupts more violently.


What element is an Alkali metal which will explode when exposed to water?

Pick one. They all do it, and the farther down the period you go the more violently it'll explode.


What kind of volcano erupts more violently than others?

Dormant volcanoes don't erupt at all. When volcanoes are dormant, are "asleep" and do not erupt for a while. actually yes dormant is asleep but they can erupt at any time your thinking extinct valcanos dont erupt


What metal could explode if you reacted it with an acid?

All the alkaline metals will explode violently when exposed to H2O. The further down you go on the Periodic Table of the elements, the more reactive they become.(Hope this helps!)


Is magnesium more reactive than lithium?

Lithium is more reactive to water than magnesium because while Lithium will explode and generally destroy the container it is in, magnesium will cause the water to violently bubble.

Because in some places there are tectonic plates that are colliding where others have little activity.


Do all volcanoes erupt lava?

Lava emissions are found with all active volcanoes, although some volcano emit more lave than others.


Why are some volcanoes more active than others?

some volcanoes are more active than others because some volcanoes lie on plate boundaries that move frequently which adds more pressure to the magma chamber where all of the lava is stored. Other volcanoes are formed but do not gain much pressure because they have been formed slowly or have errupted many times before and do not gain any more pressure. Some volcanoes are temperarily dormant which means they are not active. Some volcanoes have been dormant for hundreds of years because there is not enough pressure for the volcano to errupt. Hot countries may have an affect or volcanoes that started off very close to the epi-center of the earth, that has lava flowing up to the volcanoes frequently from there, which may set them off more. I hope this has answered your question.


What is the difference between shield volcano and composite volcanoes?

A shield volcano is made from lava flows that flow far, making a very wide, not very steep mountain. A cinder cone volcano is the most common type of volcano. It is formed from volcanic fragments and is very steep sided, although not always extremely tall. They usually have just one main vent, and can also sometimes form from a vent of a larger volcano, growing and becoming a whole new volcano. Composite volcanoes resemble very large cinder cone volcanoes at first, but have bigger particles making them up usually and also have multiple vents more often. They also are potentially more explosive.


Why are some volcanoes more destructive then others?

Well, all volcanoes create land, but explosive volcanoes also destroy land. Explosive volcanoes are explosive because they have a lot of gas and pressure inside them, and then the pressure suddenly drops. That's when the volcano starts erupting.
