The 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens was a VEI 5.
It has blowen in the past at VEI 5-6, so can expect the same in the furure
No. Like all the volcanoes in Hawaii it is a shield volcano.
The eruption, which is still going on, is a VEI-0.
Nyiragongo is associated with a formation called the East African Rift, a region in which Africa is being pulled apart by geologic forces. As the African plate is pulled apart, the crust becomes thin. The decreases pressure on the extremely hot rocks of the upper mantle, allowing them to melt. This molten rock, called magma, then rises up through the crust to form volcanoes such as Nyiragongo.

No. "Category 5" is a rating on a system, used for hurricanes. Mount Pinatubo is a volcano. Volcanoes do not have a rating system but eruptions do: Volcanic Explosivity Index, which ranges from VEI 0 to VEI 8. On this scale the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo was a VEI 6.

Mount St. Helens had a volcanic explosivity index (VEI) of 5 during its eruption on May 18, 1980. This VEI level indicates a significant explosive eruption that released a large amount of volcanic ash and caused widespread devastation in the surrounding area.
Mount Nyiragongo is located in Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is an active stratovolcano known for its lava lake and frequent eruptions.
Nyiragongo is estimated to be around 4,000 to 6,000 years old. It is an active stratovolcano located in the Virunga Mountains in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
