all have five - there were very particular rules applied to playwriting (just as most classical symphonies comprise four movements).
With each act divided into several scenes -
and Shakespeare's plays carry line numbers too, to make it easier for reference. (e.g. Act 3 - Scene 2 - Line 102)

Usually 5. I'm not sure that all of them do, but that was the standard at the time.

As many as they need to complete the story, too many to list here.
