My friend tried digging tunnels around corruption and he says that it doesn't work. I checked out in the net and found that this works. Can anyone please tell me if my setting is right?

The movement keys are well described by Cyan. Should you have the mobile version: there are a couple of circles in the bottom left corner. Moving the blue cursor in any direction beyong the most inner circle will cause your character to move in that direction; the speed is depending on how far out you move your cursor. Jumping is the same thing.
It is definitely advisable to stick to PC with this game; touchscreen controls can be quite frustrating if you need to be precise, like in this game.
Yes, Skeletron masks are obtainable on mobile. Maybe you just haven't had the best of luck so far, because it should be a 1/7 chance, but eventually you will find a mask that looks like this:

The answer to your question is yes!
By digging at least a 3-block wide tunnel around your corruption/crimson/hallow, you can prevent it from spreading outside of the boundaries that you give it.
This is an especially useful thing once hardmode is activated, since those two biomes spread with greater ferocity. Aequitas is also correct in that you could fill the same with incorruptible blocks, such as dungeon bricks or clay bricks. This worked especially well for me on my last playthrough, where I effectively contained the Hallow and Corruption from spreading farther than I wanted.
Do keep in mind, however, that activating hardmode will cause new corruption to spread, in a possibly different area than your original corruption biomes, so be prepared to make new boundaries once hardmode is activated.
