How can I determine BGA land pad diameter for given ball diameter?

I'm working on a project which requires the use of a CSP package. The product's datasheet provides ball pitch and ball diameter but nothing about the preferred land pad diameter. How can the pad diameter be worked out from these figures assuming an NSMD land?

You can refer to the following table.

Ball Dia.	Reduction	Land Pattern Density Level	Land Dia.	Land Variation
0.15	15%	C	0.13	0.15-0.10
0.20	15%	C	0.17	0.20-0.14
0.25	20%	B	0.20	0.20-0.17
0.30	20%	B	0.25	0.25-0.20
0.35	20%	B	0.30	0.35-0.25
0.55	25%	A	0.40	0.45-0.35

How much larger should a plated-through hole be than lead diameter to get good solder wetting?

I’m designing a new PCB where I have a whack of connectors that have to line up with the metalwork. There are some problematic connectors. All 4 pins are round. I want to have the holes as small as possible while allowing for good solder adhesion over the full length of the pin. I’m looking for guidance on how much clearance around the component lead I should have in order to get good solder wetting and adhesion.

What will go wrong when it is stored at a higher temperature or past its shelf life?

Solder paste should be stored in a refrigerator and it has an expiration date. But what exactly will go wrong when it is stored at a higher temperature or past its shelf life?
