Sorry, but I looked up Jude 1:6 in order to provide a link, before I got to your request. God Bless you.

You got the first 3 wrong, and you cheated on one, number 1, it is a common mistake to make out Satan and Lucifer to be the same beings, and certain acts are often unfortunately associated with both. However, Satan is a demon and he represents the sin of wrath, while Lucifer is a fallen angel and represents the sin of pride (usually, some texts claim it is a different sin). However, the distinction between the two isn't made very well in the bible, so most information regarding these and other demons comes from sources outside of the bible, some of which are even technically secular or pagan. Therefore, it is hard to say if there is a correct answer to this question at all. The names are used so interchangeably that I was actually surprised when I looked up stuff to find that the same text will have them representing different things and yet state they are the same being. Due to translations and other possibilities, it is hard to really say.
2. The serpent that tempts Eve to eat the forbidden fruit is never named, and while the New Testament is suggestive that it was Satan or Lucifer, the distinction is never made of whether or not the serpent was possessed or literally a demon/fallen angel guise. This is further complicated by god sentencing the serpent to crawl upon the ground and eat dust, which doesn't really fit with the idea of the serpent being Satan or Lucifer. Even worse, the biblical timeline is unclear on when the fall actually happens, so it might not even have happened yet as far as the fall of humans is concerned.
3. Well, to be fair, while this question is pretty hard, it is one of the few that has a 100% correct answer. While angels play a large role, only 3 are actually named in the accepted cannon, Gabriel, Michael, and (if you really want to count this as an angel) Satan. There are two others mentioned in books not considered cannon, but I won't bother with them, since they aren't technically a part of the bible.
Now, on number 5, you did get it right, even if one summarized, it wouldn't be just 2 sentences. However, it is interesting to note that the Old Testament says virtually nothing specific about hell, and while the New Testament adds some detail, most of what is "known" about hell is still from sources outside the bible.
