Pyroclastic material can have varying viscosities depending on its composition and temperature. However, in general, pyroclastic flows are typically low-viscosity due to their ability to flow rapidly downhill like a fluid.
Yes. It is not uncommon for rhyolitic material to form pyroclastic flows.
Pahoehoe lava, which has a low viscosity and flows more easily, is less likely to form a pyroclastic flow compared to a'a lava, which is more viscous and tends to fragment into pyroclastic material when flowing.
Lava is not a form of pyroclastic material. Pyroclastic materials are formed from volcanic eruptions and include ash, pumice, and volcanic rock fragments that are ejected into the air during explosive eruptions. In contrast, lava refers to molten rock that flows from a volcano, primarily during effusive eruptions.

Pyroclastic material is more likely to form with high viscosity magma.
Water is not a form of pyroclastic material. Pyroclastic material refers to fragmented volcanic rocks, ash, and other debris expelled during volcanic eruptions.

No. Magma is molten rock that is beneath earth's surface. When it erupts it can form lava or pyroclastic material. Although pyroclastic material can form rocks, most rocks are not from pyroclastic material.
Yes. It is not uncommon for rhyolitic material to form pyroclastic flows.

Cinder cone volcanoes are made of pyroclastic material and most often form from moderately explosive eruptions.
No. Magma is molten rock that has not erupted. After it erupts it may or may not form pyroclastic material depending on how explosive the eruption is.
Volcanic mountains form as layers of lava flows and/or pyroclastic material pile up from successive eruptions.
