Yes, arbitrary, but certain values make more sense than others. I tend to
use 0.5 A spacing and a 100 grid (50 A). RDF similar.

Yes, most definitely. For the radial, this is not necessary since imaging
is implicitly done. However, for the grid you want the "solute" in a
common reference frame with all nearby water around it (and not in
periodic frames),
