A washer is used to spread out the force that a bolt applies to an area. This is used in order to keep the bolt from pulling through, damaging, or causing an unwanted result - while still holding as intended.

Can you reuse head bolts Chevy 350 which have been blackend like rust?

You can try to clean the head bolts using either a wire brush and solvent, a bead blaster or soda blaster. After the bolts are cleaned thread them into the block to make sure they turn freely. If there is any indication that the threads are damaged do not use the head bolts. Do not use a sandblaster to clean the head bolts since that will cause erosion of the threads, making the head bolt unusable.

How do you put the head bolts back on after changing the head gasket?

Logic says "hell yes" to using new head bolts. Look, you've gone to all the trouble to get there, finish it correctly. Plus, the bolts aren't brutally expensive. HOWEVER: before you pull the head, I'd recommend that you check the head bolt torques first. Do this by a 1/4 loosen, then torque-tighten with your torque wrench. If the bolt won't torque, you have stripped block threads and you'll need to drill and use bolt adapters. Now, the head install what you can do is use a hacksaw to saw off the heads of the used bolts. Next, saw in a slot to fit a slotted screwdriver. 2 bolts will do. Insert the bolts into any 2 bolt holes, loosely. Use then as a guide for your head. Once the head is seated, start a couple of the new bots, then ease our your guide bolts.
