Volcanoes are located throughout most of the world. The most active volcanoes are found on the so-called "ring of fire" in Pacific Ocean. Indonesia has several volcanoes including Krakatoa. Hawaii's Kilauea produces the most lava of all active volcanoes in the world. North America has Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Rainier in Washington, USA. Mexico has several including Parícutin and Nevado de Toluca. Europe has Mt. Etna.
Generally, volcanoes are located near tectonic plates that are converging or diverging.
NO
Volcanoes are not usually found in the interior of tectonic plates, such as in the middle of continents like in the interior of Australia. These areas are called intraplate regions and typically have less tectonic activity compared to plate boundaries where volcanoes are commonly found.
This is where the weaknesses in the earths crust lie and it is the easiest place for lava to spew out of these weaker areas, therefore forming volcanoes
yes. some types of basalt is found of volcanoes.
Yes, the locations of volcanoes are often related to earthquake faults because both are often associated with tectonic plate boundaries. Volcanoes are commonly found along subduction zones and mid-ocean ridges, where plates collide or move apart, creating conditions for magma to rise to the surface. Earthquake faults are also commonly found at these plate boundaries, where stress builds up and is eventually released, causing earthquakes.

Sulfur (sometimes spelled as sulphur, although this is not correct by current IUPAC rules) is commonly found near natural hot springs or near volcanoes. It's also found in the combined form in many minerals, such as pyrite and galena.

Igneous rocks can commonly be found near volcanoes. They are made when lava is cooled and becomes a solid. The oceanic plates are mostly made of igneous rock.
Yes. Generally that is where the tectonic plates are. Mountain and volcanoes are formed by tectonic plate movement, so yes they are 2 features that are most commonly found at plate boundaries. Fault Block Mountains(:

Igneous rock is found in volcanoes.
Volcanoes are typically associated with igneous rocks, which are formed from the solidification of magma or lava. Igneous rocks such as basalt and andesite are commonly found in and around volcanic areas.
The Transform plate boundary commonly forms a chain of volcanoes - Professer Humifiken
Composite volcanoes are most commonly found where andesitic magmas are present. Occuring in chains, composite volcanoes are most notably found in the "Ring of Fire," located in the Pacific rim. Other instances of composite volcanoes include Mount Rainier (Washington State), Mount Vesuvius (Italy), Mount St. Helens (Washington State), Mount Hood (Oregon), and Mount Shasta (California).there are some in mid-Atlantic ridg
