Military Sanctions are a series of onerous steps designed to make an offending regime halt it's bad behavior and act responsibly. A successful example would be the world navies anti-piracy patrols off the Somali coast that ended the hijacking-for-ransom so popular with the Somali pirates.

Can un security council sanction trade embargo on the countries which fail to adopt resolution passed by them?

They can proclaim embargoes and sanctions, but the UN has no military forces; military forces have to be provided by nations. The nations involved can enforce the sanctions or ignore them, or anything in between. If some nation wants to enforce sanctions and embargoes, and another nation wants to evade these actions, then there's a potential for military conflict. For example, if the UN were to impose sanctions on Russia and an embargo on Crimea, any attempt of the USA to enforce embargo would likely lead to conflict. That's why Barack Obama has proposed only incredibly tiny and ineffectual sanctions on Russia; Vladimir Putin wouldn't stand for it. With the rapidly declining American military and the expansion of Russian military might, if push came to shove, the USA would suffer an embarrassing defeat and humiliation. And both Putin and Obama know it.
