Imagine a volcano like a giant cake. When it erupts, the cake mixes are different, some are bright and colorful, others are plain gray or black. The reason? Some volcanoes have magma that’s full of minerals and gases. These ingredients make the eruption look like it's spitting out colors from a paint palette! It’s not magic, it's chemistry in action.
Examples
- A lava flow that looks like it's glowing purple when it cools down
- A volcanic cloud with a rainbow-like color spread across the sky
