Video: What happens when lava meets ice?
Fire and ice are two opposing elements, so what happens when they meet?
In the last year, the great scholar Jeff Karson and Bob Wysocki at Syracuse University made an interesting research project about lava, named 'Project Lava'. This scientific project aims to study the nature and characteristics of volcanic lava. In particular, scientists have conducted some interesting experiments, including pouring lava onto the ice surface and observing the phenomenon.
Lava is a molten rock that flows out from the volcano during the eruption. When erupting from volcanoes, it is liquid at a temperature of about 700 ° C to 1,200 ° C (1,300 ° F to 2,200 ° F). Although, lava is quite viscous, about 100,000 times higher than water, but it can flow over a long distance before freezing to stone. Read more :volcanic lava,
