What type of eruptions does Mt Pinatubo have and what causes the eruption to be violent or non-violent?
Mt. Pinatubo is known to have explosive eruptions. The violence of an eruption is influenced by the amount of dissolved gas in the magma, the viscosity of the magma, and the presence of water or other fluids. If the magma has high gas content, is highly viscous, and interacts with water, it can lead to a more violent eruption.
What type of volcanic eruption depends on the amount of gases and the composition?
The type of volcanic eruption depends on the amount of gases and the composition of magma. In addition to the composition of the magma, the volcanic eruption depends on the ration of sulfur, carbon dioxide, and water the magma contains.
What does sill mean in a volcano?
Its means a certain type of eruption for example:;EXOPLOSIVE,QUIET. all it means is a eruption
Which type of magma causes quiet volcanoes?
Mafic magma (low in silica content) typically causes quiet eruptions because it is less viscous and flows more easily, leading to gentle lava flows. These eruptions are characterized by low explosivity and can result in shield volcanoes or lava plateaus.
How does the viscosity of the magma influence the type of eruption?
The viscosity of magma affects whether or not magma flows away or piles up during an eruption. Viscosity, along with volatiles (dissolved gases) and volume determine whether you have a peaceful eruption or a very violent one.
The type of magma that often causes a violent eruption can be described as having?
you smell
What type of magma causes quiet volcanoes?
magma that is low on silica & thin and runny & it flows easily
What type of eruption is the eruption Eyjafjallajökull?
It's has explosive eruptions not quiet ones.

If the magma has high gas content, is highly viscous, and interacts with water, it can lead to a more violent eruption.
What properties of magma help determine the type of eruption?
The properties of magma that help to determine the type of eruption are the magma's viscosity and its silica content. Those volcanoes that exhibit massive eruptions have a high viscosity and high silica content.
Which magma type resulted in a quiet eruptions?
That would normally be magma with a low silica content.

What are two type of volcanic vents?
magma or lava dried after a volcanic eruption.
What factors determine whether a volcano has a violent or quiet eruption?
A volcano erupts when enough pressure builds up inside of it to unplug it's crater. The stronger the plug, the more force is needed to expel it, which results in a more violent eruption. Also, the stickiness of the lava is a factor. The more sticky the lava, the stronger the eruption.
