Reviewer for semi-final exam

QuestionAnswer
Product of the quiet effusion of molten rock or magma beneath a volcano Lava Flow
Extremely low in speed and seldom cause of deaths directly. Lava Flow
Forms when the dome that forms from the piling up of lava flows hear the vent collapses. Pyroclastic flow
Magma and lava that comes from volcanoes in Hawaii are called? Hot spot
Volcanoes are formed when plate dives under another plate Subduction zones
What fragments thus the explosive eruptions cause? Tephra
What quiet eruptions creates? Lavas
The most easily identifiable volcanic deposits? Lava flows
What affects the way lava flows and its speed? The composition
It is the fastest flowing lava because of it's low viscosity. Basaltic lava
Basaltic lava styles? Pahoehoe and A'a
Composed of thin flows with smooth surface that sometimes feature ropy folds. Pahoehoe
It has sharp, spiny surfaces. A'a
It has small volume and typically associated with stratovolcanoes and commonly forms lava domes. It is slow by lava flow standards. Andesitic Lava
It have higher viscosity, which is why these are a lot slower than andesitic and basaltic lava flows. Rhyolitic Lava
Other types of lava Sheet lava and Pillow lava
This are thicker than pahoehoe and have surface texture Sheet lava
Pillow-shaped rocks formed by the sudden cooling of lava that is deposited underwater Pillow Lava
What makes the volcanic eruption work? Gas
It expand enormously when magma rises to the Earth's surface and erupts. Volcanic Gas
The most abundant volcanic gas released into atmosphere. Water Vapor H20
Other volcanic gases CO2, SO2, N, H, CO, S, Ar, Cl, F
Abundant in the atmosphere and natural product of respiration Carbon Dioxide
Colorless and odorless gas. Carbon Monoxide
Colorless gas with strong odor. Sulfur dioxide
The release of SO2 gas during an eruption can produce volcanic smog called? Vog
SO2 + O + Water and sunlight Haze and smog
Hot mixtures of fresh lava, gas, rock, pumice and ash that move down the sides of a volcanic crater at high speeds during an eruption. Pyroclastic flow
Types of Pyroclastic flow -Merapi type, Pelean type and Soufriere type
The mechanism that produce nuee ardente from the collapse of a dome Merapi type of pyroclastic flow
Nuee ardente deposits of block and ash are also generated by dome collapse Pelean type
It involves the collapse of a dome Soufriere type
Effects of Pyroclastic Flow Burn, Impact and Burial, Inhalation of gases, and Lahars and flooding.
Volcanic rock and lava materials that are ejected into the air by explosions or carried upward by the eruption column's hot gases or lava fountains. Tephra Falls
Special kind of tephra
