What name is given to the solid magma core left exposed when erosion wears away the outside of a volcano?

This is known as a volcanic plug or neck. Please see the related link for more information.


What describes solid materials erupted from a volcano?

Solid materials erupted from a volcano are known as pyroclastic materials. These include ash, rocks, and hardened lava fragments that can vary in size from tiny particles to large boulders. Pyroclastic materials are formed during explosive volcanic eruptions when magma is fragmented and violently expelled from the volcano.


Which parts of the volcano are solid?

The main solid parts of a volcano include the crust of the Earth, the volcanic rock that forms the cone and vent of the volcano, and the hardened lava flows. Beneath the surface, there are also solid magma chambers where molten rock accumulates before erupting.


What is the solid magma core of a volcano called?

Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.

How does magma go into a volcano?

Being a less dense liquid, it rises toward the surface, seeking the path of least resistance. The volcano is simply a structure created by the rising magma and the surface features of its lava.

lava?

The magma from the Earth's mantle can rise and collect in spaces called magma chambers. The magma continues to collect here until it is pushed out of a crack in the ground or a volcano.


If lava is to hot in a volcano can it burn the volcano down?

This is a silly question...No! Magma (not lava) can melt (not burn) and include some material sorrounding it but could never melt an entire volcano as it would cool down and become solid in doing so.

Is a volcano a solid?

Lava is a liquid although some parts of it may have already solidified.


Do volcanoes and density have a relationship?

Yes, volcanoes and density are related. Magma created by the melting of rocks in the Earth's mantle is less dense than the surrounding solid rock, causing it to rise towards the surface and eventually erupt as a volcano. The composition and temperature of the magma play a role in determining how explosive or effusive a volcano will be.
