How long does a volcano erupt for?
Volcanoes erupt until their lava is gone or until the pressure beneath the volcano is released. There is no way of knowing ahead of time how long that will take. Some volcanoes blow up once and never again, and then there's Kilauea volcano in Hawaii, which has been erupting since 1983.

Does lava exit only through summit vents?
No. In some cases (like the mid-atlantic ridge), lava can erupt through rifts instead of the summit of a volcano; in other cases, such as Mount St. Helens, the 'lava' can erupt explosively and destructively through the side of a conical volcano.
What type of lava comes from what volcano?
Shield volcanoes will erupt basaltic lava. Cinder cones erupt basaltic lava or basaltic andesite lava. Stratovolcanoes often erupt andesite lava, but may erupt basaltic or rhyolitic lava and all intermediate types as well.
What is the opening called in the earths crust called through which lava gases and other pieces of rock erupt?
