Three volcanoes are considered as active: Kilauea, Mauna Loa, Hualalai (without submarine volcanoes).
Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano and many are now extinct.
Because the complete list is long see the link below.
Examples are Mauna Loa, Hualalai, Kilauea.

Volcanoes that are still active. A dormant volcano is one that is sleeping.

As a whole, most of the world's non-stop volcanism is occurring along the mid-ocean rifts, where new oceanic crust is being created. Most of the active volcanoes on the continents are located along areas of plate collision and subduction, most notably the so-called 'Ring of Fire', an area of earthquakes and volcanism around the perimeter of the Pacific Ocean.
yes accually Hawaii is a volcanoe. it is large enough to be considered an island but it is in the middle of the ocean and it is a volcanoe.yes and they can cause tsunamies
Yes however none of them are active and have not been for several millions of years.

Craters were probably caused by meteors that hit the moon. Craters can also be made by non-active volcanoes

Dormant volcanoes
Mount Bromo is one of two volcanoes that were created following a massive eruption which created an enormous caldera in which are the active Mount Bromo and the non-active Mount Batok.

Non-explosive volcanoes will have low concentrations of gas in the magma.
Effusive eruptions occur when hot, (1200oC) runny basalt magmas reach the surface. Dissolved gases escape easily as the magma erupts, forming lava that flows downhill quite easily. Effusive eruptions build up gently-sloping Shield Volcanoes like Hawaii. Explosive eruptions occur where cooler, more viscous magmas (such as andesite) reach the surface. Dissolved gases cannot escape as easily, so pressure may build up until gas explosions blast rock and lava fragments into the air! Lava flows are much more thick and sticky so do not flow downhill as easily. These eruptions build up more steeply-sloping Composite volcanoes like this one in Chile.
