Question

Please read over the questions carefully and answer the questions and label the corresponding diagram (attached image 1). (I have also added a closer up image of the bottom left diagram (image 2). 

Show your calculations and plot each rock on the appropriate blank classification diagram on the back of this page. Label your plotted points with the corresponding question number and label the corners of the diagram. 

5. Your description of a pyroclastic rock indicates that it's dominated by accretionary lapilli (80%) that you interpret as having formed in the eruptive column, but also contains substantial (20%) volcanic ash.
