Yes, a compound sentence does have one subject but two verbs.
A compound subject is when there are more than one subject in a sentence. (Ex. Mike and Brenda went shopping.) Mike and Brenda is the compound subject. A compound verb is when there are more than one verb in a sentence. (Ex. Mike sat down and then stood up.) Sat and stood are the verbs.
No. A compound sentence contains two independent clauses (subject + verb units) usually joined by a coordinating conjunction (FANBOYS).
Compound means more than one. If a sentence has a compound subject, there are two or more "do-ers" as in "Bruce and Matt went shopping for wedding rings." A sentence with a compound predicate would include two or more actions (verbs), as in " Matt ran down the street and hailed a cab."
Yes
Well a compound predicate is one or more verbs or verb phrase.
No, that's not a run-on sentence. Technically, it's a simple sentence with a compound verb. It contains a single subject and three verbs. "You" is the subject of the sentence. The three verbs are "went," "ate" and "ate." In other words, there is one person doing three actions. Admittedly, it's not a very goodsentence, but it is grammatically correct.
You need to understand the meaning of compound verbs. There is no list. Every subject in a sentence must have at least one verb. Some sentences can have more than one verb and thus are called compound verbs. As an example, he ran up the hill, tripped over the cat, fell into a ditch and hurt his arm. In this sentence the compound verbs are ran, tripped, fell, and hurt.

No, a sentence can only have one simple subject, which is the main noun or pronoun that the sentence is about. Additional nouns or pronouns in a sentence would typically be part of a compound subject.
