The type of thin set mortar you should use would depend on what you are installing the tile over. In most cases you should use a modified thin set, and I much prefer mixing it from bags.

Many installers use a 1/2 trowel, as was suggested, however I prefer a 3/8 trowel as I find it adheres as well (you should back butter your tile) and isn't as messy.

Hope that helps.

I would not recommend premixed mortar. And

For trowel size, half inch trowel on floor and quarter inch for walls.

Put the edge of the tile against the notches of the trowel. You want the trowel notch depth to be more than the thickness of the tile. That's how you know.
