je vais mal vs je suis malade

What is the difference between mal and malade? It looks like aller is used for mal and être for malade, but what's the difference. There's also "j'ai mal" using avoir, (not in this lesson). But given the context in comparison to this lesson, I'm guessing j'ai mal is used to say specifically where it hurts, but I'm not understanding the other two.

leur vs à eux

Is "Il va leur téléphoner." the same as " Il va téléphoner à eux."?

In other words, can a sentence written with indirect object pronouns be replaced by one with stress pronouns?

Rapidement vs vite So, rapidement and vite are synonymous; however when I typed in vite for Henri runs quickly, it was marked as incorrect. Because they are synonymous, I feel that «vite» should be included as a correct response as well as rapidement.

Ce dont vs dont

Hello, I can’t find any lessons about “ce dont” on kwiziq though I’ve seen it being used by french people many times. So I look it up on lawless french and find a comparison between “ce dont” and “dont” (https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indefinite-relative-pronouns-ce-dont-quoi/) and I still can’t tell the difference between the two. Please help. Thank you so much!

Est-ce que c'est possible vs est-il possible ..?

This might dive into various grammatical topics, but I can't seem to figure out what rules this sentence should follow:

Est-ce que c'est possible de réserver une table?
Est-il possible de réserver une table?

Which one is in this case grammatically correct and why? Could you both use them in different instances?
