The titans were his enemy in the War of the Gods, and then the remaining ones were his cowed subjects, so any attempt to defy him could be seen as the Titans rebelling again. Also he had a huge superiority complex and wanted to remain better than the humans and so didn't like them having things he wanted to reserve solely for the gods.

Did zeus show any pity for Prometheus?
After Prometheus was freed by Herakles, Zeus' son, he forgave him.
How does Prometheus trick Zeus?
he does it at when zeus is slepping.
Did Prometheus create man before Kronos was chopped into tiny pieces?
The chronology of the Greek myth is often contradictory. But Prometheus and Zeus never got along, so one might assume that the actions of Prometheus were after Zeus had overthrown Cronus.
When did Zeus punish Prometheus?
He chained Prometheus to a rock. Then, he had an eagle come and eat Prometheus's liver. However, Prometheus was immortal so his liver regrew every day. The eagle cam every day and ate Prometheus's liver. Prometheus was finally freed by Hercules, who broke the chains.A note: You might have noticed, but the eagle is one of Zeus's symbols...it's a bit ironic.

What did this titan give to man that Zeus had told him not to?
I think you are talking about Prometheus. Prometheus was Zeus's servant. He gave mankind fire, but Zeus did not want him to. Humans thought fire was magic and when they found out that it wasn't, Zeus feared they would think the gods weren't as majestic and worthy. So, when Prometheus gave humans fire, Zeus found him and tied him to a pole where he would send an eagle to eat his liver every day. But, by the next morning, it would have grown back. Prometheus suffered this because he knew Hercules would rescue him. Prometheus could see into the future, so he knew this. That is why Zeus kept him around. Hercules rescued Prometheus. So, that's the story.
