As magma approaches the surface, water contributes to the explosive potential of the eruption because ________.
◦ water has a lower density in its solid phase than its liquid phase which makes it explode when pressure decreases
◦ water has a large heat capacity, which allow it to keep the magma hot enough to explode
◦ water dissolved in magma flashes to steam as pressure decreases, and the volume increase leads to an explosive potential
◦ water dissociates to hydrogen and oxygen at high temperatures but reacts violently at decreasing pressures to produce explosive eruptions
