Which one of the following types of volcanoes would be the most explosive a volcanoes that contain small amounts of water b volcanoes that have thin magna c ones that contain small amounts of carbo?

D. Volcanoes that have large amounts of silica


If a volcano contained magma with small proportions of water and silica would you predict a nonexplosive eruption or an explosive one why?

This would result in a non-explosive, "runny" eruption, similar to what you get in Hawaii, where the volcano simply pours out lava. Explosive reactions occur when rocks contain large amounts of water and silica, which flash into steam, resulting in a rapid expansion, and thus a dangerously explosive reaction.


What volcano forms from lava that contains relatively small amounts of gases and silica?

A volcano that forms from lava containing relatively small amounts of gases and silica is typically a shield volcano. These volcanoes have broad, gently sloping sides and are primarily built up by the flow of low-viscosity basaltic lava, which can travel long distances. The low gas content allows for less explosive eruptions, resulting in relatively calm lava flows. Examples include Mauna Loa and Kilauea in Hawaii.


What metals contain steel?

The main element in steel is usually iron. It also contains small amounts of other substances, to improve its properties. Often it contains some carbon (not a metal), and sometimes smaller amounts of other metals.
