You will want to use a medium base WHITE mud for laying your tile. The medium base will allow you to make adjustments to level the tile and you must use white to prevent the mud from staining the tile. Keep in mind this is a natural stone. As far as the grout goes, I recommend using 3/16 to 1/8 spacers and make sure you use a sandless grout. A grout that has sand in it will scratch your tile when you float it in. Again, this is a natural stone. Do not forget to seal your tile immediately after installation and continue to do so as needed. Also, make sure you regularly clean your tile. If you spill anything clean it up immediately and do not use anything acidic as it will stain or discolor your tile. Other than that, you will enjoy your travertine for many, many years. Good Luck.
You can use it to make stucco, lay brick and block, or bed-in fiberglass tubs and shower stalls.

It's called a mortar and pestle and is used to grind, crush and mix solids. In chemistry, trituration (reducing particle size by grinding) can be used to purify a compound containing soluble impurities. The compound is ground up using the mortar and pestle then is rinsed in a solvent in which the impurity will dissolve but the desired compound will remain.

If the petals are dried, the best way to grind them is with a mortar and pestle. Add the water in very small amounts, mixing with the pestle.
On antiqued finished the minimum is 1/8" grout line. On the honed you might be able to get a 1/16" grout line depending on the edging.
You can but it wont look very nice, if you use grout you get a smoother joint and you have lots of color choises.
if your grout line is less than 1/4" you use smooth grout, above that you use sanded grout.
You can use two different types of grout for bathroom showers. If your tile requires a thin line of grout then it would be best to use a non-sanding type and for tile that requires a wider line of grout its best to use a sanding type.
One would normally use a tile grout mixed with bonding liquid, this should not be a problem
Sadly, if you are looking to fix the tile with the grout, there is none. If you are looking for something that will not crack because of movement, a high end epoxy grout.
Use for non-load application. Mix with sand to produce a mortar for bricks and blocks. Mix proportions by weight for TYPE N Mortar - 10 kg Masonry Cement - 35 kg Sand
Use grout as silicone will start harboring algae and be almost impossible to keep looking good.
You should use the grout that will work best for the biggest grout space that you need. So for a grout width like you described, 1/16 to 1/2, you should use sanded grout. Unsanded grout will look terrible in a 1/2" grout joint, but sanded grout will look great in both. Use sanded.

Not JUST a grout no. You can get a cement that will also work as a grout but a pure grout would not have the adhesion required to stick the tiles to the wall properly, you should not use it as a cement.
