The Puyehue Volcano along the coast of Chile caused a 9.5 earthquake on the Richtor Scale. This happened on May 22, 1960.
When small earthquakes result in a volcano, they are caused by a slip on a fault near an existing volcano. In 1981, the largest felt volcanic earthquake occurred in the Cascades.

The reason why is simple. When a volcano erupts, it ruptures the earth's inner core, causing a few aftershocks of earthquakew.
Earthquakes can cause a volcano to erupt.
No, but they are very related. Tectonic plates shift which could cause earthquakes because of the strong vibrations and could also cause the pushing up of magma, causing the volcano to erupt.
Earthquakes shake the ground from underneath. This shaking can set off a reaction from within the volcano and activate it.
because the plates the mantle would slide under each other hitting the mantle causing the magma to erup causing volcano
Mauna Loa Volcano is the largest volcano on earth.
what plates are causing the arenal volcano to from
no it isn't the mauna loa is the largest volcano in Hawaii
Increases in seismic activity around a volcano are typically caused by the movement of magma below the surface into a magma chamber. This causes increases in pressure which leads to fracturing to the rock mass around the magma chamber causing small earthquakes. If the pressure continues to build it would ultimately force the volcano to erupt. As such the small earthquakes are potentially a warning sign of an impending volcanic eruption.
