How often can you see a moon in the night?
Any moon apart from the new moon can be seen in the night sky, although the only moon phase that is above the horizon the entire night is the full moon. The gibbous phases either rise just before sunset or set after sunrise, the quarter phases either rise or set at midnight and the crescent phases either rise shortly before sunrise or set shortly before sunset.

How does the crescent phase that precedes the new moon differ from the crescent phase that follows the new moon?
A waning crescent is the phase in which the visible (illuminated) Moon is shrinking, leading to a New Moon (all dark). The open end of the crescent is facing away from the rising sun.A waxing crescent is the phase following a New Moon during which more of the visible face is being illuminated, leading toward a Full Moon. The open end of the crescent is facing away from the setting sun.(These directions do not vary by hemisphere as do the conventions of left and right.)
What planet is seen as the same phrases like the moon?
There are none. The planet Venus is often seen in its gibbous and crescent phases, but never appears to be full; when it would be, Venus is hidden behind the Sun. And Venus only appears in the "new" phase twice per century, during the "transits of Venus". The planets Mars, Jupiter and Saturn appear in the gibbous and full phases, but never in the crescent or new phases.
Were does the Moon go when it is morning?
The moon is often visible in the morning, particularly during the waning phases. The time the moon rises and sets depends entirely on it's phase, thus it is not really possible to see a waxing moon during the morning (except when the first quarter moon rises). The two best phases of the moon to see in the morning is the Third Quarter moon and the Waning Crescent moon - since the Waning Gibbous moon sets shortly after sunrise.
