Hot water hydrothermal vents form black smokers
Step-by-step explanation:
- A Hydrothermal vent is formed by the volcanic eruptions near seawater or ocean water when the hot molten magma is heated it rushes outside through a vent.
- The average temperature of hydrothermal vent water is around 450° Celsius.
- The sulfide present in molten lava comes in contact with the ocean water or sea water it leaves the color of vent black.
- So, it is called black smokers.
