Opaque
The walls weren't sanded first and it's probably oil paint underneath. Latex can't go over oil paint.
This is a difficult situation to deal with because you don't want the paint underneath to crack if the top is dried to quickly without the underneath following. I would possibly try a hair dryer.

No. If it is a latex paint, it is not flammable when its wet or dry. If its an oil paint, it is not flammable when it is dry.
Ideally, it should dry to the color of the chip. Higher quality paints darken as they dry, while lower quality paints will tend to dry lighter than they are when wet, however, they should all dry to the color of the chip. Depending on the lighting and colors of the accessories or surfaces that are in the area, the color could appear to be darker, lighter or have undertones that didn't show up at the paint store, but when compared to the paint chip in that environment, it should still match.
Yes, but the paint has to dry completely dry first.
Lots of reasons. Most colors will darken when they dry. The color of the wall underneath will affect it. Going over a darker color, even with two coats, the darker base can still darken the new color. The type of light changes it also. Even how you apply it can affect the color,
If you sat and watched paint dry that would be very boring, right? It means boring.
No.
Once the paint is dry, it shouldn't smudge or run, if it did, the paint wasn't dry. (Fabric Paint, is just like enamel paint, it just has extra ingredients in the paint so it can be washed)
Watercolour has a short drying time. It only takes minutes for the paint to dry. The time it takes for the water to dry is how long it will take for the paint to dry.
Because it's soaking in to dry unused surfaces.
