What else can I help you with?
When equal amounts of a basaltic and granitic magma mix what is the resulting magma?
basaltic
Is basaltic or andesitic magma hotter?
Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma. Basaltic magma typically has temperatures ranging from 1000°C to 1200°C, while andesitic magma has temperatures around 800°C to 1000°C.
What kind of magma does Yellowstone have?
The magma is primarily granitic/rhyolitic, but there are occasional basaltic lava flows.
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
Magma that is low in silica and produces nonexplosive eruptions is called?
Magma that is low in silica and produces nonexplosive eruptions is called basaltic magma. As basaltic magma has a low viscosity due to its low silica content, it tends to flow more easily, resulting in nonexplosive eruptions with lava flows.
When equal amounts of a basaltic and granitic magma mix what is the resulting magma?
basaltic
Is granitic magma dark or light?
granitic is light, basaltic is dark.
Is basaltic or andesitic magma hotter?
Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma. Basaltic magma typically has temperatures ranging from 1000°C to 1200°C, while andesitic magma has temperatures around 800°C to 1000°C.
Do cinder cone volcanoes have granitic magma?
No. Cinder cones are formed by basaltic magma.
What kind of magma does Yellowstone have?
The magma is primarily granitic/rhyolitic, but there are occasional basaltic lava flows.
What is the difference between basaltic magma and silicic magma?
Granitic rocks are intrusive, which means they crystallized underground. Basaltic rocks are extrusive, meaning they crystallized above ground. Also, basaltic rocks are more mafic, and granitic rocks are more felsic.
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
What do basaltic and granitic magmas have in common?
Basalt and Granite are both made from the same magma.
What is the type of magma does mt st helen have?
it is basaltic, granitic i dont know which one but one of them i think
Is basaltic magma wet or dry?
Basaltic magma is considered "dry" because it has relatively low water content compared to other types of magma. This is why basaltic eruptions tend to be less explosive compared to more water-rich magmas like andesitic or rhyolitic magmas.
Magma that is low in silica and produces nonexplosive eruptions is called?
Magma that is low in silica and produces nonexplosive eruptions is called basaltic magma. As basaltic magma has a low viscosity due to its low silica content, it tends to flow more easily, resulting in nonexplosive eruptions with lava flows.
Does granitic or basaltic magma flow faster?
Magma is never cool as it is inside the volcano with a whole load of other magna and when hardend i believe it is called something else. Although, i presume you mean lava which is magma when it is outside of the volcano so in answer to that, the hotter it is, the runnier it is, the faster it moves.
