Viscosity can be affected by three main factors, Firstly, the higher the temperature, the lower the density of the magma, causing it to flow more easily. Secondly, the greater the amount of dissolved gases in the magma, the less viscous it will be, and lastly the higher the silica content, the more viscous it will be. Thicker, more viscous magma has a greater potential for explosive eruptions and therefore represent the greatest potential hazards. The thickest type of magma is known as Acidic Magma. Its relatively low temperature, high silica content and leads to blockages and powerful eruptions.
For constructive plate margins, the magma rises up into the gap that created by the plate move apart to form a volcano. After that for earthquakes, after that for the earthquakes, it occur at all three types of plate margins. They are caused by tension that build up at the plate margins, for destructive plate margins, the tension build up when one plate get stuck as it’s moving down past the other into the mantle. Then for constructive margins, the tension builds along cracks within the plates as they move away from each other. At last for conservations margins, the tension build up when plate are grinding past each other get stuck.
It is the viscosity of magma that largely determines the nature and power of an eruption and the resultant severity of the hazard. Basic magma has a high proportion of dissolved gases and low silica content, making it very fluid. On the other hand, acidic magma is very rich in silica and has a relatively lower temperature, making it very thick and slow moving. The more viscous the magma, the greater the potential for explosive eruptions and these represent the greatest potential hazards. Non-explosive eruptions tend to produce mostly lava flows, which do not represent a particularly serious hazard to people, however they will destroy farmland and buildings.
An inward tilt during eruption is much steeper than that of re-inflation. 6. What are "vesicles"? (page 99, para 1) Tiny bubbles that have gas trapped in them after the solidifying of the magma after eruption. 7.
Due to high temperatures in the mantle of around 3000 degrees centigrade, this oceanic crusts melts and then rises due to the convection currents in the aesthenosphere . As it joins with trapped seawater and sediment, it melts the overlying continental crust, and the magma plumes rise to the surface. They contain more silica so are more viscous, which plugs up the volcano, meaning pressure build up. This is why these volcanoes are so explosive. Another type of plate boundary are constructive, which is the margin between two diverging plates where new magma
Secondary Vents are extra vents that the lava seeped through Secondary Cones are built by lava and are on the volcano. The risks to people and property from volcanic eruptions are being destroyed by lava. Some risks to people are suffocation to the gas cloud. You can predict volcanic ruptures because there will be ground shaking, increase in temperature and the Earth’s surface will began to bulge. What role have volcanoes played in the evolution of life on the planet?

Kool-Aid Play dough (Nonedible) This is a super fast and easy recipe. This recipe is excellent if you don’t have a stove or microwave. I just boil the water in an electric kettle. With any of the Kool-Aid recipes the dough will be the color of the Kool-Aid mix and will smell like the Kool-Aid mix. If this play dough gets sticky after a period of non-use, I just add flour and knead until its back to good condition
The molecules of gas have a comparatively large space between them. Conduction occurs only in solids which have closely packed molecules whose motion is restricted to vibration in the same position within the solid mass. The addition of heat energy, due to this compactness, is translated to Kinetic Energy (greater vibrational motion) which is immediately transferred to neighbouring molecules and the Heat Transfer by Conduction is Achieved. Conduction is the fastest form of Heat transfer. Convection, heat transfer in fluids (Liquids and Gases) is due to rising currents of fluid due to decrease in Density.
Gases dissolved in magma provide the motive force of volcanic eruptions, sulphurous volcanic gas and visible steam are usually the first things noticed on an active volcano as well as others that escape unseen for example through hot fumaroles, active vents, and porous ground surfaces. The limitations of taking these samples are remote location of these sites, intense and often hazardous fumes, frequent bad weather, and the potential for sudden eruptions can make regular sampling sometimes impossible and dangerous. Measuring gases remotely is possible but requires ideal weather and the availability of suitable aircraft or a network of roads around a
