Why does underwater hot-spot volcanism tend to form chains of island? For that matter why doesn't it form one huge, single island?

Weegy: An underwater hot-spot volcano occasionally erupts, and the lava solidifies into an island. [ However, the plate that lies above the hot spot continues to move due to slab pull and ridge push, so the stationary volcano will be in a different location when it erupts again. This forms a new island, and the process may continue. ] (More)
