How are volcanoes that have no erupted in recorded history classified?
Volcanoes that have not erupted in recorded history are classified as "dormant" or "extinct." Dormant volcanoes are those that have the potential to erupt again in the future, while extinct volcanoes are unlikely to erupt again. The classification often depends on geological assessments, including the volcano's history, structure, and activity levels. Additionally, some volcanoes may be labeled as "active" if they have shown signs of unrest in the past, even if they haven't erupted recently.

What is the difference between extinct dormant and active volcanoes?
An Active volcano is one that has erupted at least once in the past 15,20years.An Extinct volcano has not erupted within the past 15,20 years.A Dormant volcano is an Active volcano that is not currently erupting but can erupt anytime.
How are volcanoes that have erupted in recent history classified?
A volcano that has erupted at least once during the past 10,000 years is called an active volcano. Active volcanos can be further classified as erupting or dormant. An erupting volcano is an active volcano that is currently having an eruption. A dormant volcano is an active volcano that is not erupting, but that is due to erupt again.
Which type of volcano has not erupted at all during historical times?

What word does scientist use for when a volcano is asleep?
Active volcanoes: are those that erupted lava,gases ,cinder,pumice,etc in the historic pass.Eg: Mt.St.Helena Dormant volcanoes: are those which erupted in the past and are likely to erupt again after remeaining inactive for fairly long periods. These are "sleeping" volcanoes which may become active once again. eg: Mt.vesuvius.Extinct volcanoes: are those volcanoes which were active in the remote geological periods. Eg: Mt.Kenya

Volcano that is thought of as sleeping?
A sleeping volcano is a volcano which hasn't erupted in ages but has erupted in the past and will carry on erupting in the future. Another name for a sleeping volcano is a dormant volcano. Volcanoes can go through a dormant or sleeping phase sometimes lasting for hundreds of years before reawakening and erupting again. Volcanoes with no geological activity are "extinct", and will never erupt again.
Which volcanoes have erupted before?
Some well-known volcanoes that have erupted in the past include Mount Vesuvius in Italy, Mount St. Helens in the United States, Mount Krakatoa in Indonesia, and Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines. These volcanoes have had significant eruptions that have impacted their surrounding areas and sometimes even global climate.
What is erupted volcano called?
The second eruption is called a reawakening or re-eruption.Most volcanoes erupt multiple times over the course of their lifespan; the period during which a volcano doesn't erupt is called its dormant period or dormancy.
How many volcanoes have not erupted in Hawaii?
They all have... that's how they become volcanoes, they erupt and build up... you should make the question more specific... (i.e. in the past how many years?)
