Check off all the typical gasses that escape a volcano.
Convergent plate volcanoes are typically explosive.
What was your reason behind #2?
Convergent Plate volcanoes have access to __________ which leads them to have higher H2O/CO2 ratios.
The islands of Hawaii is because it sits over a ____________
Whether gas can escape gently or not is determined by the total volatile contents of the initial magma and the viscosity of the magma, which is controlled by its composition.
What is the connection between the expansions of gas; the viscosity of magma; and explosiveness?
Active volcanoes do not put off gasses.
