Basaltic Magma is typically forms when rocks in the upper mantle melt...Andesitic Magma is found along continental margins....Rhyolitic Magma forms when molten material rises and mixes with the overlying silica-and water-richcontinental crust...All 3 of them is a magma.

What are the three main types of magma what factor determines these classifications?

The three main types of magma are basaltic magma, andesitic magma, and rhyolitic magma. They are classified according to their mineral composition. Basaltic magma is composed of SiO2 45-55 wt%, high in Fe, Mg, Ca, low in K, Na. Andesitic magma is composed of SiO2 55-65 wt%, intermediate. in Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, K. Rhyolitic magma is composed of SiO2 65-75%, low in Fe, Mg, Ca, high in K, Na.


WHAT ARE THE THREE TYPES OF MAGMA AND THE DIFFERENCES?

The three types of magma are basaltic, andesitic, and rhyolitic. They differ in their silica content, viscosity, and eruptive behavior. Basaltic magma has low silica content, low viscosity, and tends to erupt quietly, while rhyolitic magma has high silica content, high viscosity, and tends to erupt explosively. Andesitic magma falls in between these two in terms of composition and behavior.
