What can I do with favors?
I got a favor from doing a trade with some AI, but if I click on the favor in the diplomacy screen, it opens the trade window, and at that point, I can see no favor.
Does this mean I can do a trade that is unfairly balanced to me? IF so, how do I know if a trade used my favor or not? or what other use does this favor give me?

On the deal screen, the first item on the 2 lists should be "Gain Favors" and "Spend Favors" (in the Red boxes on the image below). Favors are not spent automatically, you have to put them "on the table" like any other trade item.
Basically you can use favors in trades like a currency to make your deals more enticing. I often find myself trading them back for Energy.
As mentioned in another answer, sometimes when using "discuss" to ask an AI for things (such as declaring War on another player) you will have the option to press them in exchange for favors. However this option seems to only appear if you have enough favors with them to suceed.
I have also read that when you confront an AI about something (such as them spying on you, or settling too close to you) and they say no, you will sometimes have the option to spend favors to make them agree to stop. This also does not happen all the time, only if you have enough favors.

Favors can be used in trade deals, like selling a handful of favors for a couple thousand alloys. They can also be used to increase general acceptance scores for things like vassalization- or peace offers.How do you use favors?
