Generally speaking, there are two main chemicals used in b&w film, and a couple of auxiallry chemicals. The primary chemicals are developer, which causes the silver iodide of the film or paper emulsion to darken if it has been exposed to light, and fixer, which removes the undeveloped silver iodide from the emulsion. A chemical used to completely stop the development process is called stop bath, and is used between the developer stage and the fixer stage in both b&w film & paper processing.
Other chemicals, like hypo clear is used to remove all traces of the fixing agent & rinsing agents to reduce stopping during the drying of film. These reagents (chemicals) are not used in enlargements or paper process.
Black & White developers vary in chemical composition and produce variations accordingly but are generally separated into subcatagories based upon grain quality . . fine grain developers reactions generally are slower.
When working with color, the developer is often split into two different chemicals, one which develops the primary (black and white) image, and another that develops the color layers. This is done via color couplers and as such is sequential in the developement chemistry,not as a b&w developer except in some applications of slide processing.

Why do photos need to be developed in a dark room?
For black & white, a safelight (usually red) of proper strength and properly distanced can be used to provide illumination under which one can develop paper prints. This assumes the use of typical (orthochromatic) paper, which is desensitized to red. However, the paper can be fogged if the light is too strong or too close for the total period of time the paper is out of the package until it has gone through the fixing process. Panchromatic paper is sensitive to all colors, therefore it has to be protected from light as if it were color paper. For color, total darkness is required (obviously except during exposure of the paper). Since that is not practical, developing drums are used to provide the light-tight chamber for the development process.

Tongs are used in a dark room so that the liquid will not spill or get on your clothes. Another reason tongs are used is so that the pictures are easy to handle and won't get messed up during development.
