There are far too many to count here. Most volcanoes on convergent boundaries are stratovolcanoes. Well-known volcanoes on convergent boundaries include Mount St Helens, Mount Rainier, Mount Fuji, Mount Unzen, Mount Merapi, Krakatoa, Mount Tamboa, Mount Pinatubo, Mount Etna, Mount Vesuvius, Mount Pelee, Soufriere Hills, and Nevado del Ruiz.

Please make the question clearer. There are converging and diverging boundaries but not spreading boundaries. Plates move but don't spread. Please make the question clearer


Where are the majority of earthquakes and volcanoes in relation to the plate boundaries?

Most earthquakes occur on plate boundaries such as Japan and Chile and most volcanoes occur in diverging plate boundaries like Dallol and Iceland and the Pacific Ring of Fire like Ecuador and Indonesia


Is this true or false can volcanoes form along diverging plate boundaries?

True. Volcanoes can form along diverging plate boundaries, where tectonic plates move apart. This movement allows magma to rise and create volcanic activity, eventually forming new crust as the magma cools and solidifies. An example of this is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where submarine volcanoes and rift zones are present due to the separation of the Eurasian and North American plates.


Can volcanoes form along spreading plate boundaries on land?

No, volcanoes do not typically form along spreading plate boundaries on land. Volcanic activity at spreading plate boundaries is more commonly associated with mid-ocean ridges where two tectonic plates are moving apart, allowing magma to rise to the surface and form new oceanic crust. Land-based volcanoes are more often found at convergent plate boundaries where one plate is subducting beneath another.

Where are volcanoes that always have nonexplosive eruptions located?

They are located at divergent boundaries and hot spots.


Where most volcanoes are located compared to where plate boundaries are located?

Most volcanoes are located along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly at convergent and divergent boundaries. At convergent boundaries, one plate subducts beneath another, leading to magma formation and volcanic activity. At divergent boundaries, plates pull apart, allowing magma to rise and create new crust, often resulting in volcanic eruptions. Additionally, some volcanoes, known as hotspot volcanoes, can form away from plate boundaries due to mantle plumes.
