Yes, magma is hotter than fire. Magma is molten rock found beneath the Earth's surface, with temperatures reaching up to 1300-2400°F, while fire is a chemical reaction that emits heat and light, typically with temperatures up to around 1000-1800°F.
No. Magma in the core of the earth reaches temperatures of 2,400 F. Hotter flame can reach 3,645 F.

Which process explains why less dense hot magma rises to the surface to displace more dense cooler magma?
This process is known as mantle convection. The hotter, less dense magma rises while the cooler, denser magma sinks, creating a circular motion within the mantle. This movement of magma is driven by differences in temperature and density, ultimately leading to the displacement of magma at the surface.
Which is hotter 20C or 20F?
20°C is hotter than 20°F. 20°C is equivalent to 68°F.
Is magma as dense as rock?
Within magma there are volatile gases, predominantly water, but also carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide etc. At the pressures within a magma chamber these gases are protogases, usually incorporated into the mineral structure in some way i.e. they have the potential to become gases at lower pressures, higher up, when the magma expresses itself as a volcano, where they are released. A magma chamber is not a static repository, but as some minerals created within the magma chamber are heavier (and crystallize at a higher temperature) than others, they sink, and form heavier rocks (e.g. gabbro). The rest of the melt will rise due to being less dense than the surrounding rock, because it is hotter, contains volatiles, and has lost heavier, crystallized minerals; this process continues until the heat is spent, or it emerges as a volcano. The heat within the magma chamber has the minerals in a heightened state of excitement, therefore they will take up more space, and generally be less dense than their cold equivalents.
Why is a high temperature require to form magma at the oceanic ridges than in the continental crust?
High temperatures are required to form magma at oceanic ridges because the mantle beneath these regions is hotter due to its proximity to the Earth's core. In contrast, the continental crust is thicker and insulates the mantle, resulting in magma formation at lower temperatures. Additionally, the higher pressure at oceanic ridges can also contribute to the higher temperatures needed for magma formation.
What is hotter 10 degrees Celsius or 20 degrees Celsius?
20 degrees Celsius is hotter than 10 degrees Celsius.
Does cooler magama flow more or less quickly than hotter magma?
Cooler magma flows slower than hotter magma.
Does cooler magma flow more or less than hotter magma?
when magma is melted at a higher temp. it'll be more runny so cooler magma will be slower than hotter magma
Does cooler magma flows more or less quickly than hotter magma?
when magma is melted at a higher temp. it'll be more runny so cooler magma will be slower than hotter magma
Is basaltic or andesitic magma hotter?
Basaltic magma is hotter than andesitic magma. Basaltic magma typically has temperatures ranging from 1000°C to 1200°C, while andesitic magma has temperatures around 800°C to 1000°C.
When was Hotter Than Fire created?
Hotter Than Fire was created on 2011-11-02.
Is basaltic magma or granitic magma hotter?
Baslatic magma is hotter.
Is blue fire hotter than yellow fire?
yep,
Is yellow fire hotter than blue fire?
yep,
Is orange fire hotter than blue fire?
No, the color of a flame is determined by the temperature at which a material burns. Blue flames are typically hotter than orange flames because they burn at a higher temperature.
Is fire hotter than ice?
fish pellets
Would lava cool quicker than magma?
yes because lava is exposed to the surface while magma is below Earth's suface which would be hotter than the suface
Why is magma hotter than lava?
Magma is hotter than lava because magma is located beneath the Earth's surface where it is exposed to higher temperatures and pressures compared to lava, which is magma that reaches the surface. As magma rises to the surface and cools, it loses some of its heat energy, resulting in the lower temperature of lava.
