7. Does anybody know how C G A is called in music theory?

I think it's just an 'ambiguous' triad and might have many uses, because it suggests some form of incompleteness ( no third) , and therefore it can belong to many keys and modes. You could say that it is some form of Lydian chord with a G,A suspension that would resolve on Fsharp, A

or it could be an incomplete dominant chord like a C9 chord

it could be a Cm6 without the minor third

it could be almost anything, if you start including possibilities with inversions
