Volcanoes
- These Are Natural Opening In The Earth’s Surface Where Molten Rock Smoke, Gases, and ashes are ejected

Vulcanian
- Characterized by tall eruption that reach up to 20Km high pyroclasticflow and ashfall tephra
Plinian
- It is excessively Explosive Type of eruption of gas and pyroclastics
Viscosity
- Property of the materials resistance to flow it is also described as the liquid thickiness and stickyness
VolcanicEruption
- a process where magma, gas, and other volcanic materials are expelled from a volcano to the earth’s surface
Eruptions
- Occur When Pressure forces magma to the surface
