No - they have very poor eyesight and can only see light and dark (shadows). Their tongues are very sensitive to heat and smell. When a snakes tongue is darting in and out of the mouth they are literally taking in the particles from the air and analyzing the particles for water or prey in the area.

No, they do not. Snakes are primarily ambush predators. They take their prey by surprise and then either overpower or inject it with venom before it has a chance to fight back.

No. A coral snake captures prey by paralyzing it with its venom. The bright colors are to warn off the snakes own predators.
