How hot is Mauna Loa magma?
Magma beneath Mauna Loa volcano in Hawaii ranges in temperature from about 1,100 to 1,200 degrees Celsius (2,000 to 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit). The high temperature is necessary to keep the magma molten and allow it to rise to the surface to form lava flows during eruptions.
Why does the magma have to be hot?
Magma is molten rock. Rocks have very high melting temperatures.
Can a human escape magma?
No, it is not possible for a human to escape magma as it is molten rock that can reach temperatures over 1300 degrees Fahrenheit. Any contact with magma would be fatal almost instantly.
What is frozen magma or lava?
Frozen magma is called igneous rock, while frozen lava is known as volcanic glass or obsidian. The process of rapid cooling of magma or lava results in the formation of these solid rocks.
