It depends on the question. For example, a terrible essay hook is asking "Are you worried about global warming?" because such a question would be rhetorical and doesn't really catch the attention of the audience. A more appealing hook would be as follows, "What if Florida isn't here by 2012?" in this question you aren't really asking them their opinion, and it's more thought provoking than the former. With an appealing hook, you'll be able to keep their attention from beginning to end. In some of my essays, I will ask a question at the beginning and then end the conclusion with that same question. However, it all depends on your style, what your teacher likes and dislikes, etc. If your teacher hates essays that open with a question then it's a pretty safe bet that you shouldn't.
Generally, no, it should be strong and authoritative. Try and reword it as a statement declaring your stance instead of a question asking it
sample of a paragraph begins with a question
>don't you just love a cold glass of water on a hot summer's day?what would we do without water?
Certainly.
Literature is purposely left 'open' on many issues to allow artistic freedom to writers.
Was Kennedy Assassinated?
How did Oswald do it?
It could depend on your teacher's specifications, but in general you could have a question for rhetorical effect in your essay.
When ending an introduction you should make a transition from your introduction paragraph to the next, by stating your thesis.
nope
yes, and in the essay you should say the answer to the question.
Well the title of your essay will be the topic that you chose to write about.
If you are writing something else and referring to an essay you have written, you would put the title of that essay in quotation marks, but the title at the top of your essay (like the title of any document) should not have quotation marks.

If chosen correctly, the title of an essay should reveal the subject matter of the essay.
How about: Sanity, or Insanity, That Is the Question in Shakespeare's Hamlet.
No. Essays can have all kinds of titles. That is just one possibility. But if you have an assignment that says to do it this way, then that's your assignment.

freedom essay
I think you can do an adequate job of selecting the title. One way is to write the outline of the essay then pick a major point or conclusion of the essay and derive a title from that.
yes maybe as a title
I all depends on what your essay is sbout.
