Answer:
Felsic magma has the highest silica content of all magma types, between 65-70%. As a result, felsic magma also has the highest gas content and viscosity, and lowest mean temperatures, between 650o and 800o Celsius (1202o and 1472o Fahrenheit).

Felsic magma component of magma is the highest and the lowest in value.
Explanation:
The silica content in felsic magma is the greatest of all magma forms, ranging from 65 to 70%. As a result, felsic magma has the highest gas content and viscosity, as well as the lowest mean temperatures, ranging from 650 to 800 degrees Celsius (1202o and 1472o Fahrenheit).
Felsic magma:
- Silicate minerals, magma, and rocks that are rich in lighter elements such as silicon, oxygen, aluminium, sodium, and potassium are referred to be felsic.
- The viscosity of felsic magma or lava is higher than that of mafic magma or lava. Felsic rocks have a pale hue and a specific gravity of less than 3.
