How does the air get caught in a volcano?
When magma rises through the conduit of a volcano, dissolved gases in the magma are released as pressure decreases. As the magma nears the surface, the decreasing pressure causes the gases to form bubbles, which can get trapped within the magma. When the volcano erupts, these trapped gases are released explosively, propelling ash, gas, and lava into the air.
What is ozone trapped in the troposphere that is formed by human activities?
The ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It is trapped by other greenhouse gases.
Gases that are trapped build up pressure in magma and can cause what?
The build-up of pressure from trapped gases in magma can cause explosive volcanic eruptions. The sudden release of this pressure propels magma, ash, and gases violently out of the volcano, leading to potentially devastating and widespread destruction.
Is this true or false pumice is a rock that has many tiny holes where gases were trapped?
true
