    You may have good results just moving the whole set to a bigger pot if you cannot separate them. This will definitely help. Here is an article on proper care: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/kalanchoe/growing-mother-of-thousands.htm

    You can root that top portion by removing the larger leaves, and sticking it in some soil. It looks like it has an infection. This can be cured by mixing peroxide into your water the next time you water. Replace one third of the water with peroxide.

    This will cure the infection. Now to prevent it from happening again, you will need to wait until the plant almost completely dries out between each watering.

    This article will give you more information on the proper care of these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/kalanchoe/growing-paddle-plants.htm

    This will recover just fine. Just wide the cut part with peroxide. You can also plant those leaves. Leave them on the top of the soil, and they will root into more plants! Once the shock wears off, it will return to normal.

    Also, one plant with plantlets is enough anyway. Not having plantlets gives it more energy to grow. Also, you might just need to add more nutrients.

    Water it less and move it away from sunlight. It'll think the season is changing and might have more babies.

    It could be aphids, from what you describe. If you can send a photo, then I would know for sure if it is. In the meantime you can use this article to get you started: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/insects/homemade-aphid-control.htm

    You can trim the dead flower heads, or trim to a height of your liking, but many different species react differently to being outside. Most are best suited for a constant, controlled indoor environment. If you do put it outside, only do so on days that mimic the inside of your house, temperature, and humidity wise.
