What factor determaine the type of volcanic eruption?

Answer 1

the primary factors that determine whether a volcano violently or quietly include magma composition magma temp and the amount of dissolved gases in the magma.

Answer 2

The type of volcanic eruption is primarily determined by the composition of the magma beneath the volcano. Magma high in silica tends to be more viscous and leads to explosive eruptions, while lower silica magma tends to flow more easily, resulting in effusive eruptions. Other factors such as the presence of gas, the amount of pressure, and the shape of the volcano can also influence the type of eruption.
