My motherboard has 2 slots. One slot is occupied by the ram above. I want to add another 4gb ram. I want to know which ram can I use.

Can I use this ram - http://goo.gl/IrTMRg ?

If not can you please suggest which can I use.

My current ram is I think single channel... can I use Dual channel ram with single channel? With only 2 slots...

Combining one 2 GB stick and one 4 GB stick WILL NOT work in dual channel. Dual-channel are those which are tested to work in dual-channel ans sell as 2 x 2 GB sticks or 2 x 4 GB sticks, like that. You can add that RAM stick. Your system will have 6 GB of RAM in single channel mode.
