False.
Mount St. Helens is known for its explosive eruptions. In 1980, it erupted violently and produced a massive explosive eruption that caused significant devastation to the surrounding area. Subsequent eruptions have also been explosive in nature.
Mt. St. Helens is known for its explosive eruption in 1980, characterized by ash clouds, pyroclastic flows, and lateral blasts. It is considered one of the most significant volcanic events in U.S. history.
Yes, far more explosive. The eruption of Krakatoa was more than 10 times larger than the 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens.
A quiet eruption, also known as an effusive eruption, is characterized by the slow and steady flow of lava from the volcano without significant explosions or ash plumes. An example is the 2018 eruption of Kilauea in Hawaii. A violent eruption, also known as an explosive eruption, involves the sudden release of gas, ash, and debris with explosive force. An example is the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens in the United States.
Mount St. Helens had a volcanic explosivity index (VEI) of 5 during its eruption on May 18, 1980. This VEI level indicates a significant explosive eruption that released a large amount of volcanic ash and caused widespread devastation in the surrounding area.

An active strato-volcano that had an explosive eruption in May 1980.
If the composition of the magma is high in silica, the eruption will be explosive. The Eruption of Mt. St. Helens was an explosive eruption. If the composition of the magma is low in silica, it will produce a quiet eruption. The eruption(s) of Mt. Kilauea are quiet eruptions.
Mount St Helens has produced both quite and explosive eruptions. It is best known for a very large explosive eruption in 1980.
The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens was a explosive eruption caused by a lateral blast. It was triggered by a massive collapse of the volcano's north flank, releasing pressure built up within the volcano.

There were no lava flows associated with the 1980 eruption. The eruption instead produced a massive eruption column and pyroclastic flows. This eruption lasted for 10 hours. A series of smaller explosive and dome-building eruptions continued from six years.
The eruption of Mount Saint Helens was different from other explosive eruptions in that the initial blast was to the side, rather than straight up.
