Why is numberthat are neither prime or composite?
There is no special term for such numbers.
What are 0 and 1 called in math?
'1' is referred to as a unit. I am not sure if there is a special name for '0' though.
0 and 1 are not prime numbers but apparently they have their own special names what are they?
They both considered "identity elements". 0 is actually the identity element under addition for the real numbers, since if a is any real number, a + 0 = 0 + a = a. Mathematicians refers to 0 as the additive identity (or better said, the reflexive identity of addition). 1 is a separate and special entity called 'Unity' or 'Identity element'. 1 is actually the identity element under multiplication for the real numbers, since a x 1 = 1 x a = a. Mathematicians refers to 1 as the multiplicative identity (or better said, the reflex identity of multiplication).

Why are 0 and 1 special numbers?
nothing goes into 0, and i don't think zero goes into anything else. 1 can go into everything but nothing can go into it

What is when you find the number that when multiplied by the given number they will equal 1?
Anything to the power of 0 is 1, apart from 0 or infinity, because they are just special numbers. :)

What is special about the following sequence of numbers 8 5 4 9 1 7 6 1 0 3 2 0?
there all in alphabetical order
