1. Titans were sons of : Uranos and Gaia , their names : Okeanos, Kojos, Krios, Hyperion, Japetos and Kronos
2. Women - dauhters of Uranos and Gaia - like Reja were called Tytanids - in my language, so you should check it...
3. Uranos thrusted his sons into Tartar. Kronos hurted his father and deprive his father of power. So other brothers were released.
4. children? hmm.. i'm not sure what do you mean but let's see...
Kronos married Reja/his sister/ - they had children: Hera, Demeter, Hades, Hestia, Poseidon, Zeus.
Zeus was the king of gods..
In Odyssey apearred: nymph Calipso, nymph Kirke, Athena-Zeus' daugheter, Poseidon, Hermes-Zeus' son
5. There was a prophecy that Kronos will be deprived of his power by his child, so he was swallowing child after child until his wife hide his youngest son - Zeus, and gave Kronos a stone instead child. Some time after Zeus made his father to throw up his brothers and sisters and removed his father from throne

I just answered your other question; the link I provided will answer many of the above questions for you.
Good luck on your homework!
Edited to add (for the benefit of the above poster) - the Titans were Greek. Norse were called the Jotuns (translates to "giant").

The Titans are in the Norse mythology, not Greek or Roman. The grand-god in Norse mythology is Odin. His son is the famous Thor.
The top dogs in Greek and Roman are Zeus and Jupiter, respectively.
Google Norse mythology or the principals: Odin, Thor, Loki, Titans, and learn more on it.
