How does Felsic magmas different from mafic magmas in color temperate minerals composition and the kind of rock each form?
Mafic lava is less viscous(runnier) than felsic lava due to a lower silica content. This causes non-violent eruptions such as in the Hawaiian Islands. Mafic lava tends to be associated more with interplate volcanism and mid-ocean ridges and produces the rock type known as basalt. (The ocean floor is made of basalt.) Felsic lava is mainly found at convergent zones (areas of colliding plates) and has a high silica and water content which causes the lava to be highly viscous and causes very violent eruptions. This lava produces rhyolite and andesitic rocks. The color of the rocks formed by magmas is a consequence of its composition, mafic magmas are dark colored (Mg-Fe) and felsic magmas are light colored (Feldspars-Si).
