C flat is the same thing as a B. If it was a low B, you'd put all of your right hand fingers down, except the pinkie and then put your middle finger down on your right hand. If it was a high B, you'd put all of your fingers down with the register key.

To play a c sharp on the Clarinet (in the c is on the staff), u would finger a regular c and the key closest to the ring finger and pinky, aka the key that is not next to the other finger keys on the left hand

It depends which octave you're looking for, and since I don't know which one you need, it'd be best to find a fingering chart. I play Bass Clarinet, so I know two different fingerings for E flat on a standard B flat clarinet. The middle range (lower range for clarinet, I think) Is your left thumb (NOT the octave key) and your left pointer finger, with your right pinky pressed down. The next octave up is all your fingers with the back octave key held down as well, with your pinky on the pinky key right below your right ring finger. Hope this helps. (:

You should know that Gb is the same notes as F#. There are four Gb (F#) notes in the clarinet range and there are alternate fingerings for all four, but here are the basic fingerings. Since you are asking the question, you are most likely a beginner trying to play the first one of the notes listed here.

In the low "chalumeau" register second line Gb (the same thing as bottom space F#) is played with the first finger of the left hand alone. no other keys are pressed.

The low Gb written in the space below two ledger lines below the staff

is played with all fingers of both hands closed. The right pinkie is on the F key (nearest the bell in the upper tier of the cluster), and the left hand pinkie is on the top outside key in that cluster.

In the middle "clarion" register the Gb just above the staff (or top line F#) is played with all fingers on the left hand are closed (also pressing the register key with the thumb), and the middle finger of the right hand is closed.

Finally in the upper "altissimo" register the left hand thumb is closed (also pressing the register key) as well as the middle finger of the left hand. The right hand Eb pinkie key is usually indicated for the Gb, too (it's closed for almost the entire altissimo range, but it doesn't make a big difference on the Gb). That Gb is written on the fourth ledger line above the treble staff.

The note Eb or the Eb clarinet? If it's the note then it depends if it's Eb above the staff, on the staff, or below the staff?

How do you play a B sharp on a clarinet?

The piano is a "C" instrument, meaning when it plays a C you hear a C. The clarinet is a "B-flat" instrument which means when a clarinet plays a "C" is sounds a "B-flat." I know this sounds confusing and the easiest thing you can do is play, rewrite the clarinet notes a whole step higher than the piano part.
