"The children's toys are on the floor." is correct: "children" is an irregular plural, so the possessive is formed with 's. "Neither of the students has finished the test." is correct: "neither" is a singular pronoun and takes "has". "Mary and Tom's flat is near the park." is correct: when two people own one thing together, only the last noun takes 's. "My sister's-in-law car is new." is wrong: in compound nouns the 's is added at the end, so it should be "sister-in-law's". "The news were shocking for everybody." is wrong: "news" is uncountable and takes a singular verb ("was"). "This book is her's, not mine." is wrong: the absolute possessive pronoun "hers" is written without an apostrophe.
