Answer 1

You need to implement tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: in your UITableViewDelegate. The second argument is the index path, which will give enough information to identify the specific flashcard you want to show.

You will find further information in the Table View Programming Guide and the View Controller Programming Guide.

Answer 2

Basically you get the information from indexPath parameter of tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: in your implementation of UITableViewDelegate.

Furthermore, you can tag your elements and then pass that tag to your query method. Set tag on element when it is created and then in the handler get the tag first and do work accordingly.
