It seems like every time i step on the throttle a little bit my car make a popping sound I've heard from multiple people it could be a bad cv axle but other people have told me it a bad motor mount can anyone help my clear this up? Also i have a bad rear wheel bearing how much equipment am I going to have to replace to solve that problem?

Engine mount is pretty easy to check. Have someone put the car in first, stomp on the brakes (+ handbrake, don't want your ass getting run over) and let out the clutch while giving the car a touch of throttle. Watch for excessive engine movement. If the engine pitches up and forward, check the rear mount. If it pitches downward, watch the front mount. It's pretty obvious if the front is toast.
Checking the axles is pretty easy too. Just get the car in the air and look for cracks or chunks missing from the axle boots. If the boots are solid, grab the axles themselves and see if they move around. A bad joint will usually shift around pretty easily.

Mine is making the same popping noise (though not as frequently) and when I took it in, it was diagnosed as a rear wheel bearing. I haven't gotten it replaced yet, it's been sitting until then, but maybe that's all it is?
