1. None of them are ***.
Examples:
None of them are here.
None of the dogs are brown.

2. None of it belongs to them is correct, however you forgot the -s when you wrote "None of it belong to me". You must have a -s or -es to indicate possession.

Hope this helps you!

An s/es never indicates possession. It is added to a verb in the third person singular simple present tense.

cybercrystalNone of them is / are there.
Both are correct. When an uncountable noun or a singular pronoun follows, only a singular verb is correct:

None of it belongs to me.

How about "I've done none of it"? I'm a bit confuse about using that phrase.
