    "Did you do it?" is a grammatical question. It's actually a question used quite frequently.

  • Yes: and it would be quite natural to posit an adjunct at the beginning: "Well, did you do it"?

    The appropriateness of the sentence doesn't have anything specific to do with something you expect somebody to do. At least, not as far as I can tell. It would be used in any number of other contexts as well.

  • Take care to be polite when asking this. It could come off as rude.
