a hexagonal prism has 8 faces!!!! * * * * * While that is true, the question is probably about a rectangular (rectangler!) prism. This is a cuboid, and has 6 faces.
True.
All of them are.
A prism has 2 bases and a pyramid only 1. In a prism, the two bases are "joined" together by rectangles. In a pyramid, a triangle is attached to each side of the base, with the free corners of each triangle meeting at an apex.
A hexahedron is a 3D shape with 6 faces. It CAN be a prism whose base is a square. But that is only one example. It can also be a prism whose base is any quadrilateral. It can also be something like a pentagonal pyramid (i.e. the base is a pentagon and the sides are made up of 5 triangles.)
