If you sold stock and earned a profit on the sale, you owe taxes on those profits. However, you can also subtract your losses on sales as well. As to the percentage, it depends on your income and tax bracket.

Only if they made a profit. Given this demonstration that you have no idea what you're doing, I doubt you made a profit.

You have to report all stock transactions on your tax return, including how much you paid for it and then how much you sold for on what date. Your profits and losses get added together. 
If there is a net profit, you include it with your other types of income (e.g. salary) to calculate the tax owed. Most people are in the 22% or 24% tax bracket.

all your stock transactions are reported to the IRS by the brokerage firm that you
are using. Taxes must be paid on all stock gains you have made. The only way
around that is if you have losses to offset your gains.

Everyone you made a profit on, yes.

If you sell a stock and make a profit, that is a capital gain that is taxable.  Such a transaction is easy for the IRS to verify if they choose to do so,.
