The kind of magma that is found in the most explosive volcanoes, the composite volcanoes, is andesitic magma. It is magma that is quite high in silica content which makes it thick, sticky and gooey. Great lumps of this sticky magma cool at the top of the volcano to form a sealed cap. Magma beneath the cap builds up and pressure mounts and eventually becomes too much to be contained and the magma violently erupts out from the top, blowing out the cap and shooting miles up into the air and in all directions.
The kind of magma found in gentle volcanoes such as shield volcanoes is runny in consistency. It has very minimal amounts of silica and is not thick but loose. It therefore tends to trickle out of the top of the volcano rather than erupt or explode.
<span>Solids have molecules that are held tightly together in close bonds. (positive bonded to a negative) They can bend or vibrate but still stay bonded together closely. Solids have very little kinetic energy. </span>
<span>Liquids have molecules that are held in looser bonds. They move more freely and more randomly that in a solid. It is common for the bonds to be flexible enough to slide over each other. </span>
<span>Gasses have the loosest bond of any state of matter. The loose bonds allow the molecules to move freely and far apart. A gas has the greatest kinetic energy of any state of matter,</span>
The correct answer is B.
Strong acids completely dissociates to give hydrogen ions . Weak bases can only partially dissociate to give hydroxide ions .
Therefore when equal amounts of acid and base are mixed, while Acid is completely dissociated and gives out hydrogen ions but base only gives out a fraction of hydroxide ions.
Therefore number of hydrogen ions in the solution will be higher than hydroxide ions, resulting in an acidic pH. Therefore pH <7
