8 reps will build strength if you are using heavy weights while anything over 15 will build endurance. Im not sure though so maybe check out some websites like livestrong.

If its isolation your looking for in muscles then dumbbell curls are it. They add peak to your existing muscles. The rep range is around 6 to 8 range say for. 3 sets
Dnt over work your arms, doing too many sets and reps fatigue them.
If its muscle mass you want, stick to compound exercises. Like barbell curls in the 6 to 8 range and 4 sets
