What else can I help you with?
Does the mantle have mafic magma or felsic magma in it?
The mantle primarily contains mafic magma, which is rich in iron and magnesium. Felsic magma, which is rich in silica, is more commonly found in areas associated with continental crust or in volcanic arcs.
Does Krakatoa have felsic magma or mafic?
Krakatoa volcano typically has mafic magma, which is low in silica content and high in magnesium and iron. This type of magma tends to be more fluid and can lead to explosive eruptions due to the rapid release of gases.
How do you list characteristics of mafic and magma?
Mafic magma is high in magnesium and iron, has a low silica content, and is less viscous compared to felsic magma. Mafic lava typically produces dark-colored rocks like basalt and is associated with oceanic crust. Mafic magma tends to erupt more quietly and flow more easily due to its lower viscosity.
Which kind of magma is more likely form a volcanic rock?
Mafic magma is more likely to form volcanic rock. Mafic magma is rich in magnesium and iron, and tends to have lower viscosity and higher temperatures, allowing it to flow more easily to the surface and form volcanic rocks such as basalt.
Why doesnt zinc react with magnesium nitrate or iron chloride?
Zinc does not react with magnesium nitrate or iron chloride because zinc is less reactive than magnesium and iron. In a chemical reaction, a more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from its compound. Since zinc is lower in the reactivity series compared to magnesium and iron, it will not displace them from their salts.
Is it much more expensive to make magnesium then iron?
yes
Is iron or magnesium more reactive?
Magnesium is more reactive than iron. Magnesium reacts more readily with oxygen and water to form compounds like magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide compared to iron.
Does the mantle have mafic magma or felsic magma in it?
The mantle primarily contains mafic magma, which is rich in iron and magnesium. Felsic magma, which is rich in silica, is more commonly found in areas associated with continental crust or in volcanic arcs.
Is iron more reactive than magnesium?
In a short answer No. But I can't really explain why.
Does Krakatoa have felsic magma or mafic?
Krakatoa volcano typically has mafic magma, which is low in silica content and high in magnesium and iron. This type of magma tends to be more fluid and can lead to explosive eruptions due to the rapid release of gases.
Would magnesium and iron nitrate react?
No, as magnesium is more reactive, and would 'keep' the nitrate.
Compare the ways in which ironmagnesium minerals and feldspars crystallize from magma?
In Bowen's reaction series, feldspar minerals go through a continuous change of composition, while iron-magnesium groups have an abrupt change of mineral types. When magma cools, the feldspars that form are calcium-rich. As cooling continues, the feldspars react with magma and the feldspar composition changes. The result is a zoned crystal with sodium-rich outer layers and calcium-rich core. For iron-magnesium minerals, when magma starts cooling, a mineral begins to crystallize. However, when the magma temperature drops, a whole new mineral begins to form. The previously formed minerals reacts with the magma and is converted into the new mineral.
What element is most reactive sodium magnesium or iron?
Sodium is more reactive than either magnesium or iron.
Where did gabbro come from?
Gabbro forms from a magma that is rich in iron and magnesium, and poor in silica (quartz). The magma cools and crystallizes deep below the earth's surface. Gabbro is from the same kind of magma as basalt and diabase, but because it cools more slowly, it develops larger crystals.

What is the reaction of iron and magnesium sulphate?
Fe + MgSO4 --> FeSO4 + Mg Fe(iron)is more reactive than mg( magnesium) ........ therefore iron will displace magnesium....... hence it is a displacement reaction.............
