Answer 1

I found some info on wikipedia about this subject(just google for volcano+wikipedia)

Basically, the explosive power of a volcano depends on the composition of its magma. If the magma contains high amounts of silica (>63%), gases are trapped within, and cause enormous explosions. Other volcanoes containing less silically will tend to be far less destructive.

Answer 2
