PVC is cheaper but is used differently. PVC is usually baried in ground and emt usually runs exposed. You can use PVC exposed if it is schedule 80 gray PVC electrical conduit. Schedule 40 is for under ground

Yes and NO depending on what kind of piping system. for drain connections yes like tub drains or fixture traps but you need access to all slip/compression fittings. and NO you can not use PVC to brass for like a discharge pipe on a waterheater PRV (pressure relief valve) or any hot water piping system

That's an easy one, using conduit is always a better option, and in most European countries is a requirement. Here in the UK, inferior installation standards look more towards cost than quality. My recommendation.....conduit, all the way, all the time.
According to the wording ,2 different phase wires "can" run through the same conduit. Not only can they, but if they are part of the same circuit they must. And in cases where conductors are paralleled, meaning more than one conductor per phase as is common in commercial and industrial installations, you put one conductor of each phase and a neutral, if one exists, and a ground in each conduit. Not doing so, meaning to put all of one phase in one conduit, causes a voltage to be induced into the conduit and a tremendous amount of heat builds up. Even when using pvc or other non-metallic conduit, somewhere along the way you have something metallic and have the same problem. To simplify, you must put all conductors associated with the same circuit in the same conduit.
I WOULD NOT I wouldn't I would use copper strictly The above is clearly opinion and not very helpful if you have existing PVC pipe or have an application which requires it. Try searching on "PVC to copper adapter", you should find many to various adapters and should be able to find one to fit your application.
