Ans:

air can be ionized - yes. There is such a thing as an ionizer, which people believe ionizes dust particles, which then stick together, and fall to the ground, thus cleaning the air. The effectiveness of such a device is open to debate.

Air can be ionized by light or during a thunder storm too.

But if you got a lump of air from inside a room, I'm not sure how much charge it would have. I believe it would most likely be neutral.

Generally not. If the impulse is strong enough to displace air, such as a spark, you might hear it, especially in the case of lightning, but not for normal EM band radiation.
