Magma is a mixture of various molten minerals and trapped gasses. To a large degree it can be though of as a mixture of oxides. Those that are will commonly form minerals include Silica (SiO2), potassium oxide (K2O), sodium oxide (Na2O), calcium oxide (CaO), magnesium oxide (MgO), and iron II oxide (FeO). The most common gasses are water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2).
What else can I help you with?
A forms when magma slowly rises up inside the crater of a larger volcano.?
When magma slowly rises up the inside the crater of a larger volcano, it forms a Lava Dome.
Do some mountains have lava or magma inside?
Yes, some mountains are volcanic and are formed by the accumulation of lava and volcanic materials. These types of mountains, such as volcanoes, can have magma chambers inside that supply the eruptions of lava. When the magma reaches the surface and solidifies, it contributes to the growth of the mountain.
What do you call the part inside a volcano where magma collects in a pocket?
Lava collects inside a Magma Chamber. "When an erupting volcano empties a shallow-level magma chamber, the edifice of the volcano may collapse into the voided reservoir, thus forming a steep, bowl-shaped depression called a caldera" (Quoted from How Volcanoes Work at http:/wwwzperiodzgeologyzperiodzsdsuzperiodzedu/how_volcanoes_work/Calderaszperiodzhtml)
What does a volcano can turn a mountain inside out mean?
By the magma.
What causes magma to form deep inside earth?
Magma is molten meaning liquid-like so it is able to move inside earth. The tectonic plates separate the earth and magma. This explains when the plates move earthquakes and volcanoes occur. Lava is not magma by the way! lava is hardened magma and magma is molten!

How does magma occur?

What is the area where magma collects inside a volcanoe before it erupts?
Magma chamber.
Why lava and magma is together?
Magma is just lava inside the earth, and lava is just magma outside the earth.
Is lava in the magma?
Lava is when it's outside the volcano, magma is when it's inside of the volcano.
Molten rock inside earth?
