Most volcanoes form at the boundaries of Earth's tectonic plates. At a divergent boundary, tectonic plates move apart from one another. They never really separate because magma continuously moves up from the mantle into this boundary, building new plate material on both sides of the plate boundary.

Answer:

These plates move relative to one another above a hotter, deeper, more mobile zone at average rates as great as a few inches per year. ... Most of the world's active volcanoes are located along or near the boundaries between shifting plates and are called "plate-boundary" volcanoes
