one number of host bits must be left when you doing subnetting.
A "host" is simply any point that has an IP address. Typically a computer, but it may also be a printer, a switch, a router port.A "host IP number" is an IP number that can be assigned to a host. This excludes the first and last IP address of each network, which can't be assigned to hosts.A "host" is simply any point that has an IP address.

There is already a computer on the Internet using this IP number so no.
The maximum number of host bits that can be borrowed from a class A address is 22 (technically you could borrow 23 but the resulting network would be useless). A class A address uses 8 bits for its network address and 24 bits for its host addresses. Class A uses a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 You can only borrow 22 bits (instead of 24) because a valid network requires 4 addresses: A network address, two host addresses and a broadcast address. These networks would result in 30 bits used for the network address and 2 bits used for the host addresses. These networks use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252
Subnet mask.
If you are borrowing 2 bits, then the subnet masks will look like: 255.192.0.0 Class A 255.255.192.0 Class B 255.255.255.192 Class C
In a class A network, the first 8 bits specify the network, the remaining 24 bits specify the host.
Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network. There is no fixed number of bits for the network; this may vary.Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network.

By default Class C subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 = 24 bits for network id and 8 bits for host id. in Binary 1111 1111. 1111 1111. 1111 1111. 0000 0000 Here all 1s are Network bits and all 0s are host bits. For this subnet mask you can have 256 hosts. And you can use 254 host and asign IP address to them. By Saurabh
