An equator is an line in the middle of the globe and the prime meridian is down the middle of the globe 🌍🌏🌍🌏🌎
It is one of the Latitudes of Earth.

On mountains and peaks. One example is the Kilimanjaro, in Africa very close to the equator.
The distance from the equator is the angle of latitude. The distance from equator can be measured as magnitude of the latitude.The equator is at zero degrees latitude and a location north of the equator has a positive latitude value from 0 to +90, whereas a location south of the equator has a negative latitude. For example, a one-degree distance from the equator represents a length of ~111 km (or 60 nautical miles).
It matters how far or near you are to the equator because the closer you are to the equator the hotter your climate is. For example, the climate in Florida is much warmer than the climate in Canada. This is because the equator is MUCH closer to Florida than it is to Canada.
The distance north or south of the equator is measured in degrees of latitude. For example, the equator is measured at 0 degrees; Sydney Australia lies 33.51 degrees south of the equator; Helsinki Finland lies 60 degrees north of the equator.
Mexico is closer to the equator, due to its larger land area. For example, Hawaii is on the same latitude of Mexico City, which is in central Mexico.
Ironically, Ecuador is named that because it is placed on the equator.
For example melting of lead.

The equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
Equatorial means equator. For example, an equatorial climate is the climate of the part of the earth that is around the equator of the earth.
The Equator is a real world example, being the circumference of the Earth.
A typical example is:NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O

No. There are some places on, or near the equator which are at high altitude. For example, the top of Mt Kilimanjaro has snow on it - not a sign of being hot!
Because it is farther away from the equator as for example, South America.
A declination is a term used in astronomy to describe the angular distance of a celestial object from the celestial equator. For example, the declination of the star Sirius is approximately -16.7 degrees, indicating its position relative to the celestial equator.
