No. it is a mountain in the Himalayas, which were formed by a collision between India and Asia.
As a part of the Himalayan Mountains, Lhotse Mountain was formed by the combination of the Indian and Eurasian plates. Between it, Everest, and Nuptse is a glacial valley that makes it jagged in terms of structure.
The Himalayan mountain range of Tibet was formed when the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate collided nearly 50 million years ago. It is the world's current mountain range and includes the world's tallest mountain, Mount Everest.
No, Mount Everest was not formed by lava. It is thought that the summit of Mount Everest started at the bottom of the ancient Tethys Sea, the motion of the Indian sub continental plate and the urasian continental plate colliding, about 30 - 50 million years ago, caused the mountain to rise up and become the highest mountain on the Earth.
No, Mt. Everest is not a volcanic mountain and therefore it does not erupt. Mt. Everest is part of the Himalayas and this mountain range was formed by the squashing of an ancient sea floor between the Continent of Asia and the Indian subcontinent as this was carried north by continental drift. Thus the Himalayas are a fold belt mountain range rather than a volcanic mountain range.
