At the end of the lesson, learners are expected to:
• Describe the effect of temperature, chemical composition
and amount of dissolved gasses to the viscosity of magma;
• Relate the volcano’s slope to its material emissions.
• Illustrate the parts of the volcano.

EXPLAIN / ELABORATE
Factors affecting volcanoes’ eruption
There are primary factors affecting volcanoes’ eruptive style;
the magmas’ temperature, its chemical composition, and the
number of dissolved gasses it contains. These factors can
affect the magmas’ viscosity in different ways.
Viscosity is defined as the property of the materials’
resistance to flow. It is an important property in determining
the eruptive behavior of magmas. It is also described as the
liquids’ thickness, stickiness and is semi-fluid, due to
internal friction. The more viscous and the thicker the
material is, the greater is its resistance to flow. For
example, syrup is more viscous than water because syrup
is less liquid.
How each factor affects the viscosity of magma.
Temperature of magma affects its viscosity. The viscosity
of magma decreases with temperature. The hotter the
temperature of magma is, the lower its viscosity the more
rapidly it flows. As lava flows, it cools and begins to harden,
its ability to flow decreases and eventually stops.
Chemical composition of magma affects its viscosity.
Magma’s resistance to flow is a function of its “internal
friction” derived from the generation of chemical bonds
within the liquid. Chemical bonds are created between
negatively charged and positively charged ions. Oxygen is
anion while Silicon is an abundant cation. Thus, the silicon-
oxygen (Si-O) bond is the single most important factor in
determining the degree of magmas’ viscosity. Floating
radicals formed when these two elements bond together in
the magma, while it is in a liquid state. Magmas with high
silica content are more viscous than those with low silica
content. The magma that contains less silica is relatively
fluid and travels far before solidifying.
Amount of gasses contained in the magma affects its
viscosity but in a more mysterious way than temperature
and silica content. Nearly all magmas contain gasses that
give their explosive character the gas will increase as
pressure reduces.
Volcanoes Materials Emission
A volcanic eruption is caused by magma, a mixture of liquid
rock, crystals, and dissolved gasses is thrown out into the
Earth's surface. When magma flows onto Earth’s surface, it is
called lava. Like solid rock, magma is a mixture of minerals. It
also contains small amounts of dissolved gases such as water
vapor, carbon dioxide, and sulfur. The high temperature and
pressure under Earth’s crust keep magma in its fluid state.
Types of magma:
Mafic or Basaltic Magma
Intermediate or Andesitic Magma
Felsic or Rhyolitic Magma
Pyroclastic Material
Pyroclastic material is cloud ash, lava fragments carried
through the air and, vapor. The hot broken fragment is called
pyroclasts while the loose assemblage of pyroclasts is called
tephra. Such flow is very hot and moves rapidly due to
buoyancy provided by the vapors.
Volcano’s Slope
Volcanic eruption undergoes a natural geological process each
form depends on the types of materials made of prior to the
eruptive behavior of the volcano. Let us relate the volcano’s
slope to its materials emitted.
Shield volcano
It is characterized by gentle upper slopes (about 5o) and
somewhat steeper lower slopes (about 10o). It is composed
almost entirely of relatively thin lava flows built up over a
central vent. Most shields were formed by low viscosity basaltic
magma that flows smoothly downslope away from the summit
vent.
Composite Volcanoes/Stratovolcanoes
They have steeper slopes than shield volcanoes of 6o to 10o
low on the flanks to 30o near the top. The steep slope near the
summit is due partly to thick, short viscous lava flows that do
not travel far downslope from the vent. Stratovolcanoes show
an inter-layering of lava flows and pyroclastic material. They
are sometimes called composite volcanoes.
Cinder Cones
Slopes of cinder cones are controlled by the angle of repose
(angle of stable slope for loose unconsolidated material) and
are usually between about 25o and 35o. Cinder cones are
small volume cones consisting mostly of ash and scoria that
result from mildly explosive eruptions. They usually consist of
basaltic to andesitic material. They actually fall deposits that
are built surrounding the eruptive vent.
V. EVALUATION EVALUATION
