Scientists can Predict eruptions to an extent. Once a volcano shows signs of unrest an elevated alert code can be given although a volcano can go quiet again with no warning. So although they can give a prediction of possible activity time and scale are not always certain
No. Kilauea is still erupting.
People have attempted to stop volcanic eruptions by diverting magma flow or cooling the volcano with water, but these methods are often ineffective due to the size and power of volcanic eruptions. It is generally not practical or safe to try to stop a volcanic eruption by putting something in the volcano.
When a volcano is erupting, it is generally not safe to be near or approach the volcano. It is advised to avoid the area and not attempt to see the eruption up close. Additionally, flying or operating aircraft near an erupting volcano can pose significant risks due to the ash plume and potential disruption to air traffic.
If a volcano does not stop erupting, it can have serious consequences such as widespread destruction of property, loss of life, and disruption to the environment. Continuous eruptions can also lead to the formation of ash clouds, pyroclastic flows, and lava flows that can affect nearby communities and ecosystems for an extended period of time.
An active volcano is a volcano that has had at least one eruption during the past 10,000 years. An active volcano might be erupting or dormant. An erupting volcano is an active volcano that is having an eruption... A dormant volcano is an active volcano that is not erupting, but supposed to erupt again.
The reason scientists can't tell when it will stop erupting is because they can't tell how much molten lava is under the volcano. Even if the volcano doesn't stop erupting, flights within Europe may be resumed, the reason we're getting all this ash is because the molten lava hits the iceberg on top of the volcano and the sudden change in temperature and pressure gives off masses of fine ash.
No. Kilauea is still erupting.
Sometime in June
an erupting volcano?

Yes, they can stop erupting over time.
Volcanoes are very unpredictable, they might never know. All they can do is watch how much the eruption declines and assume it will continue to do so.
lower magma reserves or the volcano tube has closed/shifted.
"The scientists confirmed that the volcano was in danger of erupting, and ordered that all residents of the city evacuate."
