Yes we can write multiple catch blocks under a single try block. But when we use multiple catch statements, it is important that exception subclasses come before any of their superclass. Ans the reason is a catch statement with super class will catch exception of that type plus any of its subclass. The catch statement with sub class exception is a unreachable code which gives error in Java program. If the order of catch blocks from subclass to parent class is maintained then program will execute normally.

Yes, but specific exceptions need to be written before the general ones
