Cinders are small, solid pieces of lava that are expelled during a volcanic eruption. When cinders fall in vast quantities, they can form a layer of loose volcanic debris called a cinder cone. This type of volcano has a steep slope due to the accumulation of cinder material.
when volcanic ash bursts out of the volcano, its called an eruption.^^^Actually, when ash and cinders are blown violently out of volcanoes, it's called a tephra. :3
lapilli. Lapilli are small fragments of magma expelled during a volcanic eruption that solidify before hitting the ground. They are larger than volcanic ash but smaller than volcanic bombs.
Tephra consists of volcanic ash, cinders, and volcanic bombs. Tephra is ejected during explosive volcanic eruptions and can vary in size from tiny ash particles to large volcanic bombs.
False. The largest fragments that erupt from a volcano are called volcanic bombs, not cinders. Volcanic bombs are typically larger than 64 mm in diameter and are formed when semi-molten lava is ejected during an explosive volcanic eruption.

Cinder Cone
A cinder cone volcano forms from tephra eruptions. Tephra consists of volcanic matter like ash, cinders, and volcanic rocks exploded into the air during an eruption, which then settle around the vent to form a steep-sided cone-shaped structure.
Cinder cone volcanoes form from the accumulation of cinders and tephra during an explosive volcanic eruption. This material is ejected from the volcano and falls around the vent, building up a cone-shaped structure. Examples of cinder cone volcanoes include Paricutin in Mexico and Sunset Crater in Arizona.
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
Sunset Crater formed around 1085 AD during an eruption that deposited volcanic ash and cinders, creating the distinctive cinder cone we see today.
Tephra, the material ejected into the air during an explosive volcanic eruption, consists of molten lava materials such as pumice, cinders, and volcanic ash that have cooled and solidified as they fell through the air. Large tephra deposits form where the material lands and eventually become compacted into rock called volcanic tuff.
