What does the temperature have on the characteristics of magma?

Temperature, among other factors, effects the viscosity(thickness) of magma. However, for the most part, the temperature of magma is relatively consistent because magma is the type of molten rock that has not yet exited the volcano, so there are fewer factors to effect the temperature.


What type of magma is produced by mount Bromo?

Mount Bromo typically produces andesitic magma, which is intermediate in composition between basaltic and rhyolitic magma. Andesitic magma is known for its moderate silica content, resulting in eruptions that can be relatively explosive.

What affects the type of igneous rock that is formed?

Mineral composition of the magma, Rate of cooling of the magma, Temperature of the magma, Presence of volatiles and Amount of water present in the magma.

the coolest type of fire is a red fire


What factors affect lava formation?

Lava formation is primarily influenced by temperature, pressure, composition of the magma, and the presence of volatiles such as water and gases. The temperature determines the viscosity of the magma, while pressure affects the magma's ability to rise to the surface. Composition determines the type of lava flow produced, whether it be mafic, intermediate, or felsic. The presence of volatiles can lead to explosive eruptions by contributing to increased pressure within the magma chamber.


What are the hottest and coolest stars?

the temperature of red star is minimum and maximum for blue stars . our sun is yellow colored therefore red stars are coolest than our sun . Take the example of Wolf 359 (a type of red dwarf star ) located in the constellation Leo . the temperature of photosphere of this star is about 2800 kelvin and the temperature of sun's photosphere is 5778 kelvin ( effected )


What type of lava comes from hot-spots?

It depends on where the hot spot is located. Felsic magma would be produced if it was under a continent (such as in Yellowstone) whereas Mafic magma would be produced if it was under oceanic crust (such as in Hawaii)


What is Stromboli's magma type?

Stromboli's magma type is basaltic, which is typically low in silica and has a high temperature. This magma type often leads to relatively low viscosity, which allows for more frequent volcanic activity and the production of lava flows.


What type of magna has a low silica content?

Magma with low silica content is typically referred to as mafic magma. Mafic magma is characterized by its high temperature and low viscosity, which allows for the eruption of lava flows. This type of magma is commonly associated with basaltic rocks.


What type of magma is produced in the Kilauea?

Kilauea volcano typically produces tholeiitic basalt magma, which is low in silica content and flows easily. This type of magma is associated with shield volcanoes like Kilauea, known for their gentle eruptions and copious lava flows.
