Explain how the composition of magma affevt volcano eruptions?

Chemistry
1 answer:
larisa [96]3 years ago
8 0

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.

How many o atoms are present in 1.04 mol of mgso4??
HACTEHA [7]
To figure this out, you need to figure out how many molecules of mgso4 you have.
If you have 1.04 moles of MgSO4, you have that many moles times avogadro's number (6.022*10^23 molecules/mole).
1.04 moles MgSO4 * (6.022*10^23 molecules MgSO4)/1 mole MgSO4 =
6.263 *10^23 molecules MgSO4
Next, there are 4 oxygen atoms per molecule of MgSO4, so we multiply the number of molecules of MgSO4 by 4 to get the number of oxygen atoms.
6.263 *10^23 molecules MgSO4 * (4 oxygen atoms/1 MgSO4 molecule) = 2.51 * 10^24 oxygen atoms in 1.04 moles of MgSO4

astraxan [27]
The missing isotope in the equation is going to have the atomic mass and atomic number as the difference between the numbers of the other isotopes mass and atomic number respectively.
atomic mass 210-206= 4
atomic number 84-82= 2
the symbol has to correspond to the element with the atomic number. In this case 2 = He
