An AC unit works by removing unwanted moisture inside the building and transferring it outside. This is done by cooling the air inside the part of the AC that is within the building. Water will then condense in the unit because the cooled air can no longer hold the amount of moisture it had when it was warmer.. Of course, the AC will circulate the air it removed water from back to the room, and more moist air comes in. The water you see is the excess moisture that was removed. The cooling process is similar to how the refrigerator works.

It's normal, but you need to make sure your unit is installed properly with it slightly tilted outward and you drain plug is out so the water drains out side. If not, then the water may start coming into your house.

is designed to collect moisture on the coils. make sure you keep a clean filter in the unit so that the coils dont collect the dirt that the filter should be collecting. unit will last much longer and will run more efficient with a clean filter in place

You need to pitch it more out of the window, at an angle.

I would say that is normal and that is why they usually have a drip pan, etc...
