Since, there is only 1 PS2 emulator (PCSX2) in existence, and it's completely legal, yes.

Otherwise it depends on the emulator's package. What does it consists.

If any emulator comes with any copyrighted material (BIOS, games), then that emulator comes in the illegal category.

Technically yes. However, almost all of them require a PlayStation BIOS to operate. The BIOS can only be dumped from the PlayStation through highly technical means. If you don't know how to dump the BIOS, you must download one over the internet, which generally is considered illegal.

Depends, if you own the original game on the ps1 then it's legal to have it on your computer but if you don't have the original game it's illegal.

just downloading a ps2 emulator and download a ps2 game to order to play the game. It is not anywhere near this simple nor does any PS2 emulator work except in a beta or test version.

After the PSCx2 is downloaded it needs someone with real computer skills to start the set up process after you locate a copy of the PS2 bios.

If you have a PS2 emulator how do you run PS2 games on it?

By downloading the game into a file that is then played. The games for PS2s are rarely on CDs and you would need a DVD drive on your PC. A PS2 emulator is much harder to set up and use than a PS2 and games can take a considerable time and effort attempting to play them in a emulator. see related link
