The most explosive form of magma is referred to as "rhyolitic magma." This type of magma is high in silica content, which increases its viscosity and leads to the trapping of gas. When pressure builds up sufficiently, it can result in highly explosive volcanic eruptions. Rhyolitic eruptions are often characterized by pyroclastic flows and ash clouds.
