Different types of lava result in different types of volcanic eruptions. Basaltic lava, which is low in viscosity, typically leads to effusive eruptions characterized by gentle flows. Andesitic or dacitic lava, with higher viscosity, can cause explosive eruptions with pyroclastic flows and ash clouds. Rhyolitic lava, the most viscous type, tends to form dome eruptions with slow-moving lava flows and explosive activity.
No, pahoehoe and aa lava are typically produced during non-explosive eruptions. Pahoehoe lava has a smooth, ropey texture, while aa lava is rough and jagged. Explosive eruptions typically produce ash, pyroclastic flows, and lava domes.
Mount Etna typically erupts with basaltic lava, which is low in viscosity and flows more easily compared to other types of lava. This can result in effusive eruptions with lava fountains and lava flows traveling long distances. The low viscosity of basaltic lava allows gases to escape more easily, reducing the risk of explosive eruptions.
when some people think of volcanic eruptions, they often imagine rivers of red-hot lava, called lava flows. lava flows come from nonexplosive eruptions. it still spurts lava but non-explosivley!
After repeated eruptions of lava spread over a large area, what is replaced is the existing land or terrain. The lava creates new landforms such as volcanic cones, lava plateaus, or lava fields, changing the landscape of the area.

More lava comes out.
Felsic lava, due to its high viscosity and generally high gas content tends to produce violent eruptions.
Basic lava is low in viscosity.
Lava fountains can be associated with Strombolian and occasionally Hawaiian eruptions.
