Yes, at the end up the book he is ready to die and is hoping at his execution that people will be there yelling about how much they hate him. He was found guilty at the trial and he waited every day for the guards to come and towards the end stoped looking for anyway out. I don't see any other way of looking at the ending other then Meursault being executed in a few days.
Yes, hes been convicted of premeditated murder. Throughout the last chapter of the story, he tells of how all the steps have been taken to allow for his exuction, talking to the priest of the prison and just reminsing about his family and friends. Mearsault was also thinking the about how unfair the excuction system was, not giving the prisoner any chance of living...
Yes, during the court trial Meursault's punishment was determined to be a public execution. This leads me to believe that he will indeed be executed. He is ready to accept his fate and simply die.
Yes, i do get the feeling that at the end of the book Muersault was going to die. After his court hearing, they sentenced him to the death penelty. When he knows that he is going to die he sits in jail anticipating when the chaplain is going to come in and take him to his fate. For days thats all he thinks about and comes to the conclusion that everyone dies sometime or another and that sooner or later his fate will come too.
Judging by the verdict in court stating that Meursault should be executed in front of a large crowd seems like Meursault's fate was coming to an unfortunate end. Meursault seems to accept his death and the book ends with him anticipating when they will call his execution.
