volcanoes that don't erupt in a while is called dormant.
volcanoes that don't erupt anymore are called extinct.
volcanoes that erupt regularly are called active.
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.
active
You call a volcano that is no longer active (erupting, or any other seismic activity) dormant.
False. A dormant volcano is not the same as an inactive volcano. A dormant volcano has not erupted in a long time but still has the potential to erupt again, while an inactive volcano is unlikely to erupt again.
Yes but hasent eruppted scence it destroyed pompeii

active
A volcano that has erupted recently is considered active. In the time before it erupted, if it had not previously erupted in historic times, it is considered dormant.
Dormant
Active Volcano erupts from time to time while a inactive volcano hasn't erupted in a long while and may not erupt in the future again. But your never sure if a volcano is truly inactive or not!

yes it is because it spits out fumes that prove it is active
Mount Lamington is considered an active volcano located in Papua New Guinea. While it erupted violently in 1951, causing significant damage and loss of life, it still has the potential to erupt again in the future, making it an active volcano.
Mt. Everest is not a volcano, and has never erupted. Those who have died there died while trying to scale it.
Yes they are. A volcano that is not erupting is called a dormant (meaning sleeping) volcano, while one that is erupting is called an active volcano.
