Question

3 matching 5 points match the characteristics of andesitic magma below. amount of silica (silicon and oxygen) temperature amount of gases viscosity explosiveness

Explanation:

Andesitic magma has intermediate - silica content, intermediate temperature, intermediate gas amount, intermediate viscosity, and intermediate explosiveness compared to basaltic (low - silica, low - explosiveness) and rhyolitic (high - silica, high - explosiveness) magmas.

Answer:

Amount of Silica (Silicon and Oxygen): Intermediate
Temperature: Intermediate
Amount of Gases: Intermediate
Viscosity: Intermediate
Explosiveness: Intermediate
