Kinda, sorta. All the planets in our solar system are in stable orbits and won't come near colliding with each other within foreseeable time. But space is a big place, and powerful events enough to knock a planet out of orbit can occur.

Gas of both galaxies collide and a lot of new stars will be formed. If they have enough momentum, they will just pull at each other, but then travel on.

If not, they will merge. The smaller one will lose its old form as it gets absorbed by the bigger one. Stars won't crash into each other, but their gravity will start affecting each other.

Yes, there have been many that have collided over the thousands of years. As a matter of fact, it is predicted that our own galaxy will collide with our neighbor galaxy in the future.

When energy is supplied to a solid what happens to particles within it?

At particle level in a solid, the energy is only ever kinetic. More energy means the particles move more rapidly. This means they bump against each other more. If they bump against each other rapidly enough, they will begin to separate and the solid will melt.
