That will depend on both the architecture and implementation of the CPU.
The maximum number of bits that a CPU may process at once usually depends on its "register" size, but there are many other variables that influence and change this limit for a specific CPU. For example, a 64 bit processor may operate on 64 bits at once. Some processors may also have subprocessors that can handle even more bits at once, but those are usually not included in the processor's "bit size". As an example, Intel processors have MMX instructions that can handle up to 64 bits simultaneously, although the primary CPU is 32 bit. The largest known processor at the time of this answer operates on 128 bits at once, and there are rumors of even larger bit-processors on the horizon, although their power is largely unnecessary at this time. Some processors also have multiple parallel function units that can be running at the same time (e.g. integer units, floating point units, load/store unit) each of which processes a word of the appropriate number of bits for its data type simultaneously with all the other function units, this dramatically increases the possible number of bits processed at one time with no increase in "register" size. There have also been CPU architectures with large word sizes but some implementations of those architectures processed the bits in smaller groups to save cost (e.g. IBM System 360/30 like all System 360s had a 32 bit register size but processed it only 8 bits at once). Many early computers used serial ALU implementations, one that I know of had a 48 bit "register" size (stored in a continuously recirculating memory) but processed that only 1 bit at a time in the serial ALU (2 bits at a time when executing its square root instruction, but it still had to wait 2 bit times to get those 2 bits from the recirculating memory, so there was no speed increase).
64 per core, power supply
Its called Word Size :)

No it isnt. The "-2" part is a whole number, but once you start tacking on more fragments and bits after the decimal point, you don't have a whole number any more.

2 ELECTRONS in one orbital. (An electron can only be in one orbital at once)
The PID number can be used to broadly determine when the application was started. A process with a lower PID number was probably started before a process with a higher number. PID numbers are recycled once the maximum number has been reached, so it isn't a totally reliable method, but Linux has a default of 32,768 unique process IDs and can support over 4 million, so its relatively unlikely to roll over unless the system is a busy server or has been up for several weeks.
preferrably, 3, but if you have to get ALL your dogs walked at once, as many as you can
You cannot have six children at once in the Sims 3, the maximum number the game will allow is three. If you want sextuplets, try searching the internet for a mod that will let you increase this number.

Some common seafood that can be fished without a maximum catch amount include herring, cod, anchovy, tuna, squid, and shrimp. However the amount of fish you can actively catch is usually limited by consumer demand and the amount you can actually process once on shore.
Normally it would be to the maximum number of seat belts available, however circumstances and local legislation may affect this.
There is no maximum - There are so forms of spiders that lay 20,000 - 50,000 eggs at once. This does not produce that many spiders because when they hatch they all fight and eat each other until only the strongest remain.
