Answer 1

You forgot to give a space:
try this:
create or replace procedure xyz is
v_table temp.tname%type;
v_temp varchar2(100);
cursor c is select tname from temp;
begin
open c;
loop
fetch c into v_table;
exit when c%NOTFOUND;
v_temp:='drop table '||v_table; -- given a space between table and v_table.
execute immediate v_temp;
end loop;
close c;
end;
