Hello everybody.
Here's the thing: one of my friends yesterday built a monk based on the snake style feat chain. Quoting the Snake Fang feat it says:
While using the Snake Style feat, when an opponent’s attack misses you, you can make an unarmed strike against that opponent as an attack of opportunity. If this attack of opportunity hits, you can spend an immediate action to make another unarmed strike against the same opponent.
emphasis mine.
The question is, if the character has combat reflexes (which is needed to take the feat) he can make as many aoOs as his Dex modifier, but can he do this even against a single target?
I mean, if with an NPC I have 3 attacks and I make a full-attack-action against the PC, and if I miss with all the three attacks, can I make 3 aoOs (having of course at least Dex +2)?
And what if I choose to try a trip maneuver with one of these aoO and I have greater trip? Does this generate a new opportunity?
I hope I was able to explain the situation and I'm sorry if I made some language mistakes but english is not my mother tongue.

Yes. Each Miss provokes a new AoO. Just like a full attack with a bow, each ranged attack provokes (without feats to prevent it).
Want to make sure I understood your 2nd question, wasn't clear on the PC or the NPC being the one doing the trip, so answered both ways.
If the PC has Snake Fang and Greater Trip yes, if they fall prone that is yet another AoO. (so long as he still has some left)
If the enemy is the one trying to trip and has greater trip, then they only provoke if they fail (as I read it because they missed with an "attack", even if it was a Combat Maneuver).
