It seems to me only larger jets, maybe some regional jets, or business jets have slats. Other aircraft just have flaps. On the trailing edge of course. Less weight and complexity if its not really needed I guess.
Not really. The slats earn their money by letting the wing and flaps tolerate a much higher AoA. It's not the slats themselves but what they let the wing do that would otherwise cause a stall.
Thanks for all this informations.

Yes. It depends on the airplane requirements
so it's basically just like normal flaps
