identify the false statement. the viscosity of a magma or lava question 3 options: a) controls how explosive an eruption will be b) is related to the chemical composition of the magma c) is lower for mafic magmas then felsic d) is highest at hotspot volcanoes



Answer :

The misconception that lava or magma has a high viscosity is frequently true.

How does lava form?

Magma rises and collects in magma chambers because it is heavier than with the solid rock in its immediate vicinity. Eventually, some of the lava rushes through openings and vents toward the planet's surface. Magma that explodes is referred to as lava. Intense or non-explosive volcanic activity are both possible.

What are three lava-related facts?

Lava may reach 1,250°C in temperature. If there is pressure, lava may surge up or just flow out the vent. The lava will flow farther if it is hotter and thinner. When it ceases to flow, it solidifies to form volcanic rock.
