The steam may come from magma relatively near the surface heating and boiling groundwater. Some gasses may come from the magma itself. The gas, being far lighter less viscous than the magma, can move through cracks even when the magma can't.
Yes, smoke is produced when a volcano erupts. The smoke is typically made up of a mixture of gas, ash, and steam that is expelled from the volcano during an eruption.
No, geysers eject hot water and steam. Volcanoes eject lava. If enough water gets into a volcano, the water turns to steam and the volcano becomes an exploding volcano, not a geyser.
Vents in the volcano are passage ways for the magma, steam, and heat to escape the earth.
It is not very likely. Extinct volcanos are generally classified as such when their physical location is disconnected from their magma source, and when the structure of volcano itself is showing signs of geological decay or collapse related to weather erosion over a long period of time, as measured in thousands of years. Volcanos that have not been active for a shorter period, perhaps hundreds of years, are classified as "dormant". This means they may have entered a stage where they exhibit no off-gassing, there are no steam or ash plumes from fissures in the mountain, and there is no seismic activity indicating movement of magma. Such a volcano may well be on the road toward extinction, but may become active again if geological conditions connect it with a source of mobile magma.
it turns into steam
When rain falls into a volcano, it can evaporate instantly due to the high temperatures of the volcanic surfaces. The water vapor may then mix with other volcanic gases and contribute to the volcanic activity, such as creating steam explosions or causing phreatic eruptions.
it's a dormant volcano that began emitting steam(again) in 1975.This gyser is visable from Bellingham, wa. on clear winter days with minimal high El. winds.

A whistling teapot and a volcano both produce a loud sound when they reach a critical point. The teapot whistles when the water inside boils and steam escapes, while a volcano erupts when pressure builds up from molten rock and gases. In both cases, this release of pressure signals that something intense is happening within. Additionally, both phenomena can serve as warnings: the teapot alerts you that your water is ready, while a volcano can indicate impending danger.

Geothermal heat is used from within the Earth to produce steam by tapping into hot rocks or reservoirs of hot water deep underground. This steam is then used to generate electricity through geothermal power plants.
Steam power is power(energy) produce by steam.
In order for a high temperature boiler or steam engine to produce superheated water, or steam?

No. It utilizes steam to make it function. The boiler produces the steam.
A steam engine requires water to be heated to produce steam. This steam is used in pistons to produce movement, as in a steam train. An electric engine can produce the same energy, as in an electric car, and is far less bulky than a steam engine.
