  1. What would happen if one attempts to send an amount of coins to an IP address that isn’t running the program?
  2. What would happen if one attempts to send an amount of coins to a invalid Bitcoin Address?

Not possible, the software doesn’t allow that.

I guess the money will just be lost in that case.
