What are the different types of lava?
A'a Pahoehoe Pillow Lava The difference between the lava is the elements and amount of water inside the volcano. Also, the thickness of the lava.There are 4 different types of lava flows maybe more
What are the 4 types of volcanoes which exist and what type of lava do they produce?
shield, cinder cone, composite, and dome. They produce basaltic lava, rhyolite lava and andesite lava.
What are two types of hawaiian lava?
ʻAʻā lava and Pāhoehoe are the two types of Hawaiian lava.
What are the three types of lava?
Pahoehoe lava, Aa lava, and Blocky lava
How many kinds of lava exist?
there are 6 types of lava
What are the three types of lava flows associated with basaltic lava?
basaltic lava can form a'a, pahoehoe, or pillow lava.
The different types of eruptions that result from different types of lava?
Different types of lava result in different types of volcanic eruptions. Basaltic lava, which is low in viscosity, typically leads to effusive eruptions characterized by gentle flows. Andesitic or dacitic lava, with higher viscosity, can cause explosive eruptions with pyroclastic flows and ash clouds. Rhyolitic lava, the most viscous type, tends to form dome eruptions with slow-moving lava flows and explosive activity.
What types of rock does lava formed?
When lava cools it forms extrusive igneous rock.
What are the names of hawaiian type lava?
The two types of lava are aa and pāhoehoe.
Are there three types of lava or four?
It depends on what criteria you use. If you go with the kind of flow there are four.Pahoehoe (ropey lava flows)A'a (jagged, more viscous flows)Pillow lava (rounded lumps that form underwater)Block lava (very viscous, very slow moving)The first three are all associated with mafic lava, also called basaltic lava, which refers to a specific composition. Pillow lava is sometimes ignored as are black lava flows, which don't much resemble traditional images of lava.In terms of composition there are also 4 basic types on a spectrum of increasing silica content and viscosityMafic (basaltic)Intermediate (andesitic)Intermediate-felsic (dacitic)Felsic (rhyolitic)These can be further subdivided. Another, rare kind of lava exists called carbonatite. This strange lava is composed of carbobnates rather than silicates as the others are, and is only found in one volcano: Ol Doinyo Lengai in Tanzania.
Name the two types of lava?
The two main types of lava are pahoehoe, which has a smooth, rope-like texture, and aa, which has a rough, jagged texture. They differ in their viscosity and flow characteristics, with pahoehoe being more fluid and aa being more viscous.
What are names of six types of volcanoes?
The names of different types of volcanoes are: 1.Cinder, 2. Composite, 3.Shield, 4.Lava, 5.Plugs, and 6.Maars.
