1. It depends on the conditions of course, but if dry ice is kept in a closed container it will sublimate (change from solid to gas) at a rate of about 5-10lbs every 24 hours.

2. If you put dry ice in a bottle with water and close the lid it will expode in about 10-20 seconds.

This depends on temperature and pressure if you mean STP, standard temperature and pressure,' one atmosphere and 25 C, please state so. If you need to store it put it in a thermos, (Dewar flask). Ask at the ice house where you bought the dry ice how long it will last exposed the local weather this time of year, gives you a good estimate of "shelf life".

Depends on the size of the cooler, how often you open it, how warm is the stuff you put in there, etc- figure about 5 lbs per 24 hours.

You can hold dry ice for about 3 seconds, after which it begins to 'sting' the skin and cause pain.
