They come in either Dual 4ohm or Dual 2ohm. You need to know this before choosing an amp. Take one of the subs out and look at the model number it should end in D4 or D2.

that is correct... You can run as many subs as you like off of a mono amp (providing your amp has an allowed resitance on it.)
mono amps will only play subs. A 'channel amp' can power components and 6x9s and subs.

you only need one channel, normally if you have a sub running on an amp with two channels you bridge the sub over the two channels, or bridge them both if you have 2 subs,
If you run subs in stereo with each other it sounds awful
