Nuns cannot marry so Hamlet wanted Ophelia to stay away from him and he did'nt want to be married to her. Another possibility was Ophelia could have been pregnant. During this time women who became pregnant went to nunneries when they started to show. They didnt want anyone to know they were pregnant.
Hamlet tells Ophelia to get to a nunnery. However, "nunnery" not only meant convent but was also slang for whorehouse. It's a matter of interpretation every time he says it which one he means, or whether he might mean both.
ophelia doesnt actually write hamlet a love letter.. Hamlet however does write one to ophelia
Ophelia is definitely very hurt by what Hamlet has said. Hamlet saying such a phrase only further pushes Ophelia's feeling that she was cheated by Hamlet, that the love they had together earlier was not real.
He speaks to the ghost of his father, which she cannot see.
Polonius tells Claudius and Gertrude that Ophelia and Hamlet have had a relationship which Polonius had Ophelia break off, and that this might be the cause of Hamlet's wild behaviour.
Hamlet tells Ophelia to "get thee to a nunnery" because he is expressing his disillusionment with women and his belief that they are deceitful and untrustworthy. He also believes that Ophelia should remove herself from the corrupt world they live in by becoming a nun.

Hamlet breaks into Ophelia's chamber sometime near the beginning of Act II. We cannot tell exactly when because it happens offstage. However, it appears that Ophelia has rushed straight from the incident to tell her father, so Hamlet must have been in there when Polonius is talking to Reynaldo.

No, Gertrude does. It's not clear fromt he text how Ophelia finds out that her father has died.
Assuming you are talking about Act II, Ophelia describes how Hamlet came to her chamber, looking disheveled and unkempt, looking depressed, unable to speak, but looked at her, sighed, and wandered away, distracted.
They are not. Gertrude does say that she hoped Ophelia and Hamlet would marry, but she didn't bother saying that while Ophelia was alive, so she was hardly eager. Polonius told Ophelia to give Hamlet the cold shoulder, since he thought Hamlet was only trying to get into her pants. He did not want Hamlet to fall for Ophelia at all (and he sure didn't think he would do so), but he comes to the conclusion later that Hamlet has in fact fallen in love with Ophelia. He's not exactly happy about that, but what he is happy about is that he can 1) be the first to tell the king, thus making him look smart, and 2) use Ophelia as bait to find out more about Hamlet.
