What action happens when a runner advances to a base without any action form a batter in baseball?
a steal or balk
Runner steals third base and pitcher commits a balk at the same time is the runner awarded home plate?
No. The balk happens before the pitch, so the play is called dead and the runner is allowed to advance rather than attempt the steal. This happens some times, the pitcher will commit the balk because they see the runner make the break to steal, they don't get to make a throw to a base or to the plate because the umpires stop the play to call the balk.

In fast pitch once the pitcher is in the circle and the ball is in her hands can the runners steal or does she have to be on the mound ASA?
If the runner was not on the base at the time when the pitcher entered the pitching circle they can still steal a base. The runner has a certain amount of time to decide to either steal or return to their original base once the pitcher is in the circle. They cannot rock though, or pretend to go either way and then go the other. Once they commit to one direction they have to go that direction, unless the ball leaves the pitcher's circle again.

Who is it easier to steal first base from left or right handed pitcher?
You can't steal first base. It's easier to steal second base off of a right handed pitcher because the right handed pitcher has his back to the runner on first, and therefore has a harder time trying to pick the runner off.
Why do fielders tag runners especially at second base even when they are very obviously on the bag?
Usually this happens when the runner is sliding in, or has just slid into the bag. It is a measure in case the runner comes off the bag while getting up, or simply a "why not, you never know" kind of deal where they tag just to be sure.
