How to find out compatibile RAM

Use CPU-Z software to find out the clock speed and generation of RAM. After that, you can buy RAM of the same configuration no matter which brand you choose.

It will also show if there are any more memory slots available or not.

IF its laptop, can check on crucial website. They suggest upgrade based on laptop model.

I had opened the cpu, there are couple of empty RAM slots but i think there must be a limit of max memory that we can expand, right?

How do you find out the max capacity? When i was looking for it, i couldn't find consistent information

Always check with Intel sites to know the detailed specifications:

Here the max bus speed is 1066 MHz with a LGA775 socket MB, that can accomodate DDR2 DDR3 ram only (which operates below 1066 MHz) and that calculates the total computing power.

The existing stick, is it proper?

Also not able to find dd2 RAM with 1066mhz

No, this seems to be DDR3 one of 2GB and from 1333 MHz family.

PS: You have to go for low capacity DDR3 as it can't accommodate the higher ones. Sorry for the confusion, now I have stood corrected my previous reply.
