I can actually help for once! Since I just read it, there is no explicit sexual acts (especially between Vin and Elend) but there is more implied with Straff and his mistresses. Straff is often framed by the author in the scene with some sort of 'mistress' content to show his sexual appetite and reasons for it. There is also mention of breeding by a certain group of people that shows the Lord Ruler's brutal rule.
Definitely nothing more saucy than like a Friends episode.

Not explicitly, no.

There is basically no sexual content in the book. I've only read the first two Mistborn books so far, but I'd imagine that since the author is a big-time Mormon that you don't have to worry about explicit sexual material in any of his books.
There's plenty of violence though, so be aware of that.

I haven't read the third book, but in the first two, no. There is one scene in the second book that mentions the main character sleeping naked next to a man and that he pulled her on top of him after she got dressed. That is only said in a sentence or two and there aren't any more sexual details so it's safe to read for teens. Before that the books only ever mentions things like "he put his arm around her." It is far safer in terms of sexual content than many books popular with teens.
There is mention of rape, again there are no sexual descriptions of it, but it is mentioned repeatedly that some of the nobleman rape then kill the women.
