The coverage will depend on the nature of the surface being painted: its porosity, texture, degree of preparation.The container should give an indication of the coverage.
The coverage depends on the porosity and preparation of the surface being painted as well as the coverage of the paint. Look for details on the can of paint.
Paint coverage differs depending on brand and type of paint. Most (if not all) paint cans will indicate that one gallon covers so many square feet. For example, Paint A says one gallon covers 200 square feet. That means 200 square feet will require one gallon, 50 square feet will require one quart, 400 square feet will require two gallons, etc.
It depends on the covering properties of the paint. That will depend on the surface being painted.
Different types of paint have different coverage. The answer will also depend on the the surface to be painted. Porous surfaces will require more paint. A surface with a strong colour that needs to be hidden will require more paint. A surface that is smoothed and well primed will require less. The paint tin should give an indicative answer.
