Yes converging lens. The power of the lens is given by reciprocal of its focal length. Moreover the power for converging action is +ve. So as we place two converging lenses ie convex lenses, then we have to add the powers. Once again the power becomes +ve. So converging action is definite.

What is a name of a converging lens?
Converging lens is a convex lens.
Why is convex lens called a converging lens?
when a beam of light is passed through the convex lens it converges the beam of ligth.hence convex lens is called a converging lens.

Which lens is a converging lens a double-convex lens or a spherical-convex lens or a plano-concave lens or a convexo-concave lens?
Your are mixing properties. Converging lens is always thicker in the centre and thinner at the edges. The other cathegory is the geometry of shape of the surfaces of the lens. Convex means that the shape is similar to the outer surbace of a sphere, concave means that the shape is similar to the iner surface of a sphere (or: convex = lower side of a spoon as we use it for sampling a soup; concave: upper (inner) shape of the spoon). A double convex lens is always a converging lens. A plano-concave lens is always a diverging (not converging) lens. A convexo-concave lens is the most usual shape of a lense used in spectacles. It can be either converging or diverging, depending on the radii of the surfaces.
Is also called a converging lens?
convex lens yo, it is biconvex lens
What lens is a converging lens double-convex spherical-convex plano-concave or convexo-concave lens?
A converging lens is also known as a magnifying lens. The shape of the lens is a double convex shape.
Which of the following lenses is a converging lens A double-convex lens B spherical-convex lens C plano-concave lens D convexo-concave lens?
Double-convex lens
