i) When imposed on buyers, demand curve would shift to the left as a result of tax
When imposed on sellers, supply curve would shift to the left as a result of tax
ii) New equilibrium quantity is 8 units in both cases
iii) New equilibrium price is $12 in case of supply shift and $8 in case of demand shift
iv) Price buyers pay will be $12 in both cases
v) Price sellers receive will be $8 in both cases
vi) Tax received by government is 4*8 = $32 in both cases.
