Question
match the characteristics of rhyolitic magma below. amount of silica (silicon and oxygen) explosiveness viscosity temperature amount of gases
Brief Explanations
Rhyolitic magma is known for having a high amount of silica which leads to high viscosity. High - silica magmas also tend to be more explosive and can hold a high amount of dissolved gases. Temperature of rhyolitic magma is relatively lower compared to basaltic magma but still high.
