    The most likely reason that there are so many volcanoes in Iceland is that Iceland is on a border between two tectonic plates.

    Explanation:

    Iceland is a country that is exactly located on the mid oceanic ridge. The convergence of the "Eurasian Plate" and the "North American Plate" has given rise to the land that we know as Iceland. Due to its presence right on the mid oceanic ridge, a number of active volcanoes are found throughout Iceland.
