By asking this question you are probably not quite ready to take on this particular task. You may or may not get lucky and receive some information in an answer here! If you hope to get enough information on this site to be able to do this job properly and safely, please do not rely on getting accurate information about such a potentially dangerous subject. Really, don't do this one yourself. Electricity is far too dangerous to handle if you have not been trained how to do this work. If you put just one wire in the wrong place you risk being killed by electrocution or you could even start a house fire.
How to do this job depends entirely on the Wiring Codes or Regulations for the locality (Town/State) and on the exact locations of some of the outlets you wish to install. If they are anywhere subject to water splashes or spray - such as in any room supplied with running water pipes, like a kitchen, bathroom, shower room, etc., or in a pool-side area - in many places nowadays it is actually illegal to attempt to do this kind of work unless you are already a licensed electrician. If you don't want to go to your local library or bookstore - to find and read some books about electrical wiring and appliances and how to install them safely, and to find out about your local Wiring Codes and Regulations - then the best advice anyone should give to you is to call a licensed electrician either to do the job for you or to advise you what you may be allowed to do yourself. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY
REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator
to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
To add a 220V 20A circuit to an existing breaker box, you will need to install a double-pole 20A breaker in the box. Make sure to match the breaker size with the wire gauge you are using for the circuit. Then, run the appropriate gauge wire from the breaker to the intended outlet or appliance location, following local electrical codes and regulations. It's recommended to consult a licensed electrician for safety and to ensure compliance with building codes.
To install a 220 volt circuit, first determine the electrical requirements of the appliance or equipment you plan to use with it. Then, hire a licensed electrician to install the appropriate circuit breaker, wiring, and outlet to meet the voltage and amperage needs. It's important to follow all local building codes and regulations to ensure safety and proper functioning.
That would be a 40 amp 220v circuit. Circuit breaker is 40 amps and wire is 8 awg. Should use solid copper wire. Follow oven installation instructions.
A straight 220V circuit utilizes two wires per circuit.
You would need to change a circuits voltage if your adding a load that requires 220 when the present circuit supplies 120. If you need to do so it's pretty simple! First purchase a double pole breaker at the proper amp rating. Next find the breaker in the panel that supplies power to the circuit you wish to change to 220. Turn off the breaker and pull it out. Find the neutral for that circuit. Then double check and make sure it's the right neutral. Then check one more time. Now take the neutral and the hot wire for that circuit and connect them to the double pole breaker. install the breaker into the panel and turn it on. If you connected the right neutral you'll have 220 on that circuit. If you didn't you'll know because you'll trip the breaker.
No, add new breaker,find a junction box and split the series, or add a box and split the load. You only need to do this if the breaker is tripping from overload. 12ga wire should have a 20amp breaker not a 15amp. If I understand your question,wired in parallel, this would be one hot connected to two breakers, first off two breakers is 220v not 120v , and 220v has two hot wires. Never connect two breakers together on one line.

All three, on 110V a split receptacle, on 220V a baseboard heater, on 440V a construction heater or similar resistive load.
A straight 220V circuit utilizes two wires per circuit.
No, only one GFCI per circuit.
The breaker will blow because you are effectively causing a short circuit.

The term "double pole" usually means a breaker with 2 handles that attaches in the space as a normal single pole breaker. If this is what you mean, no, you cannot. There is no potential, or voltage, between the wire terminals. If by "double pole" you mean what is usually called a 2-pole breaker, which is a breaker with 2 handles that attaches in the space of 2 single pole breakers, then yes, you can use this breaker and 12/2 wire to produce a 220v circuit.
For 220v circuits
This is only valid in parts of the work using 110/220 Volt split phase power system. There will be 110V from each of the hot leads to ground/neutral, so connect your outlet to only one of the hot leads, the neutral lead and the earth ground lead. This may be a problem with a dedicated 220V circuit as there will likely be no neutral line. Another note - this could well cause an unbalanced electrical load across the two pole breaker. If the breaker has a rating of 20A and the 110V circuit draws much of that current, the heater will likely trip the breaker.
