rowid has a physical significance i.e you can read a row if you know rowid. It is complete physical address of a row.

While rownum is temporary serial number allocated to each returned row during query execution.

"varchar" allocates memory in dynamic fashion where as "varchar2" also allocates memory in dynamic fashion but it also supports garbage collection.
