What are the locations and names of all heart valves?

The tricuspid valve is between the right atrium and right ventricle.The pulmonary or pulmonic valve is between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery.The mitral valve is between the left atrium and left ventricle.The aortic valve is between the left ventricle and the aorta.Between the right atrium leading into the right ventricle is an atrioventricular valve called the Tricuspid valve. It is named for the three flaps from which it is made. Between the right ventricle and the pulmonary veins is a semilunar valve called the Pulmonary valve. Coming in between the left atrium and the left ventricle is an atrioventricular valve known as the Mitral valve (the shape is similar to the mitres worn by bishops) then in between the left ventricle and the aorta is a semilunar valve called the Aortic valve.

If you are referring to the valve that separates the left atrium from the left ventricle, it is called the mitral valve.

What valve separates the right atrium and and the right ventricle?

The right atrioventricular valve (or right AV valve), also called the tricuspid valve, (for its three leafletlobes) controls the flow of blood between the right atrium and right ventricle. (The opening itself is the "right atrioventricular canal.") It prevents dexoygenated blood from regurgitating back into the right atrium. The vale is called "tricuspid" because of its three leaflets; it must be noted however, that the tricuspid valve can contain between two and four leaflets.
