well the whole point of a lava lamp is to watch the lava go up and down in the fluid. once it is shaken though, normally the "lava" becomes separated into smaller pieces. it will stay that way.
Yes, it can explode. It can explode when you leave it on for longer than the instructions say.
The water cycle involves water evaporating up, forming condensation, and going back down. A lava lamp involves water moving up, staying for a second, and falling down, however in blob form.
he did not come up with the idea of a lava lamp he just saw it on a counter at a bar and tried amkinkg his own version and took the credit
Air at Earth's surface is much cooler than lava is, the lava will start to transfer heat to the air on contact. The air heats up and the lava cools down.

no it will blow up if you do that!!!!!!!!! DONT DO IT!!!
Yes, the heat is important in lava lams.
When the lava all goes up it means that the temperature is too hot, and when it's down it means it's too cold, at least the seller told me that.

Eventually, yes but it depends on how violently it is shaken.

this is like warm, less dense air rises while cool more dense sinks. This is like the lava lamp the hot "lava" floats up to the top and and the cooler "lava" sinks down to the bottom and heats up and rises and the cooling stuff at the top is now sinking
The 'lava' in a Lava Lamp is actually a chemically treated wax. The clear (sometimes colored) liquid is water. When the lamp is turned on the metal coil inside the glass chamber is heated by the light bulb. The reason it sinks and rises is because when the molecules inside the wax get heated up and speed up and expand. This causes them to become less dense than the water causing them to rise. When they are at the top the molecules slowly get colder and they slow down which makes them more dense than the water, so the wax sinks.
yes they are poisonous and they are made up of chemicals
Lava lamps get hot because you have to plug them into the wall and wen you do that it creates energy so then your lava lamp heats up and then the stuff inside it can work.
