Pretty much everything but (this could b a long list if i put what dosn't)
1) Magnitude
2) Duration
3) Distance from epicenter
4) Location (land vs. water)
and if it is a homework assignment your teacher is probably looking for damage done.

The minimum number of seismic stations needed to determine the location of an earthquake's epicenter is THREE.
Yes.
The earthquake of magnitude 7.6 claimed more than 80,000 lives
Mercalli scale
location distance motion
The effects of the earthquake in Haiti was that it killed lots of people and destroyed everything.
The Modified Mercalli Intensity scale is used in the US to determine the severity of earthquake effects. Intensity ratings are in Roman numerals, I - meaning no people felt movement, all the way up to XII - where almost everything is destroyed.The amount of structural and geological damage done by an earthquake in a specific location determines an earthquake's intensity on the Mercalli scale. :)

The Richter scale is related to the effects of an earthquake rather than the energy released.
Basically the effects of the earthquake is a big tremor and things toppling over.
None
Scientists use devices called Seismographs to determine the epicenter of an earthquake. If 3 or more seismographs detect an earthquake, seismic wave activity can be measured and quantified and then cross-referenced with other data (the primary and secondary seismic waves) to determine the earthquake's location.
A small earthquake that happens after a larger one is called an aftershock. Aftershocks happen because the crust in the area where the main earthquake happened is adjusting to the earthquake's effects.
We determine the scaling relationships between earthquake stress drop and recurrence.
The difference between them is that Primary effects happen during the earthquake e.g. Casualties, Damage to parking structures & free ways. But with Secondary effects they happen after an earthquake e.g. Fire, Landslides & Liquefaction
Seismic waves can be used to determine the location of an earthquake focus. These waves are triggered by tectonic plates.
