If you are positive that it is asphalt I would not suggest adhering tile directly to the asphalt. If removal of asphalt is not an option I would install a subfloor and use thinset mortar to adhere the tile. Another option (probably the better option) would be to pour a concrete mix over the asphalt. Than use thinset to install the tile. The concrete will incapsolate the asphalt. Asphalt more than likely has oils in it and can be a hazard.
Use petrol or paint tinner...
That would depend on whether they are ceramic tiles or more vinyl tiles.
The answer is, it depends. Different types of bituminous cement concrete (asphalt hot mix) use different percentages of asphalt cement. In Virginia, base mixes use at least 4.4% asphalt, while surface mixes are up to about 6%. Liquid asphalt is a little heavier than water; it weighs about 9.4#/gallon (depending on the source and grade). Here's the math: Base mix 2000#/ton x 4.4%/9.4#/gal. = 9.36 gal/ton surface mix 2000#/ton x 6%/9.4#/gal. = 12.76 gal/ton hope this answers the question.
Yes, but you should you use an adhesive that is ductile
Not JUST a grout no. You can get a cement that will also work as a grout but a pure grout would not have the adhesion required to stick the tiles to the wall properly, you should not use it as a cement.

Yes, if the adhesive is smooth, no lumps and if you use a compatible glue, not thinset cement
You couldn't tile directly over a plywood sub-floor because over time, the wood will be expanding. There are products you can use in between the plywood and tiles to keep them in place such as cement backer board.
I have a tile floor in my kitchen.

It is best to remove the vinyl tile. If it is not on cement and is on wood you can install cement backer board. Be sure to put thin set under the board.

To tile a cement floor effectively, follow these steps: Clean the cement floor thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a layer of primer to the floor to help the tiles adhere better. Measure and mark the center of the room to start tiling from. Mix the tile adhesive according to the manufacturer's instructions. Spread the adhesive on the floor using a trowel and place the tiles in the desired pattern. Use spacers to ensure even spacing between tiles. Allow the adhesive to dry completely before grouting the tiles. Apply grout between the tiles and wipe off any excess with a damp sponge. Allow the grout to dry before sealing the tiles for added protection. Following these steps will help you tile a cement floor effectively.
Thinset tile cement.
in asphalt and cement concrete. We can use sand ,cement and water as a mixture of mortar.
To install tile on a wood floor, first ensure the wood floor is clean and level. Apply a layer of cement backer board over the wood floor to create a stable surface for the tile. Use thin-set mortar to adhere the tiles to the backer board, spacing them evenly. Allow the mortar to dry before grouting the tiles. Seal the grout to protect it from stains and moisture.
Yes, you can use floor tile on the wall. It can be heavy, but if you use a high quality latex fortified thin set (NOT mastic) you should have no issues. It also should be put onto cement board for best results. In the past using floor tile on the wall was an issue because trimpieces were not easily available. With trends changing, you are seeing more with bullnose and you can always use ceramic trim like schulter. Now, you CANNOT put wall tile on the floor. They are often made with white clay and other more bridle ingredient's. Check the box, it will tell you what it is rated for.
