One volcano can form one island normally. If it collapses into a caldera it could form a group of three or four.

How many volcanic islands are there?
The canary islands are all sitting on the top of an underwater volcano that has been dormant for hundreds of years. I also know that most of the individual islands have there own volcano's and on tenerife it is due to erupt soon as it does every 100 years. So the islands are on the top of a volcano with a volcano on top of most of them.
Is there water around a volcano?
Sometimes. Many volcanoes form islands, but not all do.
What kind of landform can be formed by deposition of sediment from an underwater volcano?
A volcano can be formed in hawii themountains and many other places. The volcanoes are really sensetive so it can erupt at any time anywere.
Active Volcano's of the Atlantic Ocean?
Yes. There are many volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean as well as many underwater volcanoes.

What would happen if an underwater volcano kept erupting again and again?
The underwater volcano would eventually emerge from the sea and become an island. For example, each of the islands in the Hawaiian Islands chain were formed from vocanoes, and the Big Island of Hawai'i is STILL erupting. Iceland was created the same way. Many South Pacific islands were originally undersea volcanoes which erupted, formed an island, and the island became ringed with coral reefs.

The Hawaiian Island archipelago includes 137 islands and atolls. Many of these islands are tiny and uninhabited. The eight largest main islands form the State of Hawaii: the island of Hawai'i, Maui, Lana'i, Moloka'i, Kaho'olawe, 'Oahu, Kauai, and Ni'ihau.I haven't counted the small islands; there are probably more than 124. But 8 larger islands is correct.The "Big Island" of Hawai'iMauiKaho'olaweLana'iMoloka'iOahuKaua'iNi'ihauThe most photographed of the smaller islands is probably Molokini, which is a half-rim of an underwater volcano southwest of Maui. If you ever see a mountainous crescent-shaped island surrounded by boats - that's Molokini.
