Rosencrantz and Guildenstern do more than one job for the king. The first is to try to draw Hamlet out in conversation, so they can know what is on his mind. Later they accompany Hamlet to England.

What tasks do Rosencrantz and Guildenstern take on for the King and Queen?
Primarily, spying on Hamlet.
Are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern successful?
They are. If they weren't, Hamlet wouldn't have sent them to their death. They had the opportunity to betray him when they were out of his sight. It seems the king didn't completely take them into his confidence, though, so perhaps their loyalty wasn't total.
What does Claudius arrange to happen to Hamlet when he arrives in England?
2 parts to this question... To get rid of Hamlet, King Claudius first sends Hamlet to Englan along with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with a letter that requests putting Hamlet to death. This plan fails because Hamlet finds out and switches the letter resulting in the death of its carrier (Rosencrantz and Guildenstern). When he comes back.. the King tries to get rid of him by 1. Putting poisin in his drink (but fails and Gertrude ends up drinking it). 2. Poisining Laertes' sowrd so he would kill Hamlet while fighting, and he succeeds. (But of course that happens after Hamlet finds out and kills the King)
Who will escort hamlet to England?
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern - both who end up dead.
How does Hamlet show his complete contempt for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern?
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, who are old schoolfriends of Hamlet's are called upon by the king to spy on Hamlet in order to find out what is bothering him. Hamlet, however, figures out why they are there, gets them to confess it and tells them what he guesses to be their business. He then lets out some vague and quite misleading hints as to what is on his mind (the "what a piece of work is man" speech.)

What do rosencrantz and guildenstern report to claudius and Gertrude?
To take Hamlet to England to be killed, Claudius can't have Hamlet killed in Denmark because it would upset Queen Gertrude along with many others who still praise him even though he seems to have lost his mind. However on the trip to England Hamlet changes out the letters to say kill these men---Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. The priates of the ship are told that they will be paid well if they send Hamlet back. And they believe him due to his charming personality and style of clothing which is not commender fashioned. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are sent to the King of England and take the punishment of what was supposed to be Hamlet's death.

What happened to Hamlet on the ship?
The incident in which Hamlet gets off the ship to England plays an important role in changing the entire plot. As he was being "escorted" to England by Guildenstern and Rosencrantz, he switches the letter that the King had given with the one he writes. The original message that the King had wanted to pass on contained an order to kill Hamlet in England. However, Hamlet switches the letter with a new one which orders for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to be executed. After this, a pirate ship attacks the ship that Hamlet was on. We are not given much detail on such an occurrence but we find out that Hamlet got onto the pirate's ship as the pirates were attacking the ship that was supposed to take Hamlet to England. Shakespeare does this in order to bring Hamlet back to Denmark and resume the plot. Although, the literary merit behind such a plot manipulation is widely debated as being either acceptable or flagrantly unacceptable.
What is the purpose or function of hamlet's act 1?
Act 2 of Hamlet tells us that Hamlet is acting crazy like he said he would, that his old school chums Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have been sent for to spy on him to see if he's crazy, some actors have shown up and Hamlet thinks about using them to test whether the Ghost was telling him the truth. Also, if we went straight from Act 1 to Act 3 someone would think we couldn't count.
How many deaths in the play result directly or indirectly from Hamlet's plot for revenge?
If we take it that Hamlet killed Polonius believing him to be the king, and therefore as a part of his plot for revenge, then Polonius's death, and indirectly Ophelia's arise from his act of revenge. Claudius of course dies from Hamlet's revenge. Gertrude, Laertes and Hamlet die as a result of Laertes and Claudius's plot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern die just because Hamlet doesn't much like them.
