Answer:
Acidic lava is composed of high amount of silica and is usually composed of feldspar and quartz minerals thus having a lighter appearance. It is highly viscous because of its high silica content.
Basic lava is composed of high amounts of iron and magnesium and is low in silica content. It has a darker appearance as it is rich in ferromagnesian minerals and has a low viscosity.
