What type of magma containing a lot silica and water vapor?
Felsic magma
What type of magma has a high silica content?
rhyolitic magma has a lot of silica and water vapors... thanks for asking answers.com ;)
Which flows easier high silica magna or low silica magna?
Low silica magma typically flows easier than high silica magma because low silica magma has lower viscosity, meaning it is less resistant to flow. High silica magma is more viscous due to the presence of more silica tetrahedra in its composition, making it thicker and more difficult to flow.
Type of magma containing a lot of silica and water vapor?
Rhyolitic magma typically contains a high amount of silica and water vapor. It is known for its high viscosity and tendency to produce explosive eruptions due to the buildup of gas pressure within the magma chamber.
Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
What type of magma containing a lot silica and water vapor?
Felsic magma
What is the type of magma contain a lot of silica and water vapor is?
The three types of magma, named for the rock they form are basaltic, rhyolitic and andesitic. Rhyolitic magma is rich in silica and water vapor.
Is silica thick?
Silica in natural form can be both particles or thick on fusion as in felsic magma origin
What can be made up of magma?
Silica, Water and carbon dioxide.

What is the relationship between silica or water content of magma and materials ejected from an volcano?
The concentration of silica and water content in magma influence the force with which it is ejected from a volcano. The higher the levels of water and other gasses as well as the more silica it contains, the more explosive the eruption will be.
Which flows easier high silica magna or low silica magna?
Low silica magma typically flows easier than high silica magma because low silica magma has lower viscosity, meaning it is less resistant to flow. High silica magma is more viscous due to the presence of more silica tetrahedra in its composition, making it thicker and more difficult to flow.

Does basaltic magma have a lot of silica or very little?
Basaltic magma is low in silica compared to andesitic or granitic magma.
How does the amount of silica content change the viscosity of magma How does this affect the flow of magma?
The amount of silica and water affect the viscosity of the magma. The more viscous the magma, the slower the flow rate and the shorter and the thicker the flows. Silica makes for a more viscous magma.
What mineral that affects magma thickness?
The mineral that affects magma thickness is silica. Magma with high silica content tends to be more viscous, resulting in thicker magma. Conversely, magma with low silica content is less viscous and flows more easily.
Does the increase in silica increase the viscosity of a magma?
it is normally intermediate flow because of the silica content.
