The abolitionists were people who were against slavery in the 1800's, and believed in the immediate end and abolishment of slavery in America. Abolitionists sought to pass laws preventing the spread of slavery. They helped Southern slaves escape to Canada, many using the organized network of the Underground Railroad. Some abolitionists just helped slaves tell their story. In 1860, the election of pro-abolition congressmen led to the secession of the Southern slave states to form the Confederacy, leading to the Civil War.
No, they were not. Free-Soilers wanted to stop the spread of slavery, while abolitionists wanted to abolish it alltogether.
This question can not be answered. It is not a question and needs a subject added.
Abolitionists wanted to end slavery, while "Free Soilers" were more interested in making sure the state they lived in was not a slave state. Some people were both, but there were Free Soilers who (perhaps through believing that slavery could not be done away with completely) had only the goal of making sure the new territory they had moved into entered the Union as a free state.

Free-Soilers were Northerners who wanted to contain slavery, as in keep it from spreading to new territories. Free-Soilers were alright with keeping the existing slavery where it was already prevalent. They're opinions were based on more political aspects.Abolitionists wanted to completely get rid of existing slavery and prevent it from becoming legal in new territories. They're opinions were based more on moral aspects.
The Free Soilers were a political party founded in 1848 that opposed the expansion of slavery into new territories. They were not necessarily abolitionists, as their primary goal was to prevent the spread of slavery rather than advocate for its immediate end. Abolitionists, on the other hand, were individuals and groups who sought the immediate emancipation and abolition of slavery.
Northern abolitionists and free soilers would have been concerned about the potential spread of slavery into new territories with the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854. This act allowed for popular sovereignty in these territories, which could have led to the expansion of slavery into areas where it had previously been prohibited.
Abolitionists believed in the immediate and total abolition of slavery, viewing it as morally wrong. Free Soilers focused on preventing the expansion of slavery into new territories, believing it threatened white labor opportunities. Know Nothings opposed the spread of slavery but were motivated more by nativist concerns about immigrants.
