The Convergent boundary forms a subduction zone. When the heavier plate reaches 100km the water is released from the submerged plate, and the mantle starts to melt. The mantle rises and a volcano forms on the lighter side plate. Unless it is a continent-continent convergent plate where mostly mountains are forms.
