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. It has an intermediate - temperature range. The amount of gases is low. It has high viscosity due to the relatively high silica content, and is often associated with explosive eruptions because the high viscosity traps gases, building up pressure.

Answer:

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