A homonym is a word that sounds the same as another word, and is often spelled the same, but has a different meaning. Here are the definitions of volcano.
1. A vent in the earth's crust through which lava, steam, ashes, etc., are expelled, either continuously or at irregular intervals.
2. A mountain or hill, usually having a cuplike crater at the summit, formed around such a vent from the ash and lava expelled through it.
So, theoretically, it really only has one meaning.
Unless you were to use it as a metaphor, like if you were referring to a big pimple on your forehead that was about to pop... you could say "This volcano on my forehead is about to erupt."
Did you by chance mean "synonym?" Synonyms are two words that mean more or less the same thing, like "wonderful" and "superb."
"Volcano" doesn't really have any recognized synonyms, unless you wanted to get creative and use "explosive mountain," or "molten mountain."

There isn't one...a homonym is one of two or more words that have the same sound and often the same spelling but differ in meaning, such as bank and bank or him and hymm.
Now use that definition using the word volcano....such as volcano and volcano.
