The goal of chess is to capture your opponent's King .The goal of a chess game is to put the opponent king in Check Mate.
In chess, when your king is in check, you need to immediately take it out of check. You can only put the other king in checkmate if it involves taking your king out of check.
Absolutely, as long as it does not put the king in check.
No, you cannot move your king into a position where it is in checkmate.
Any opponent piece, except the opponent king.
A tied game of chess is called a Stalemate, this happens when all a player's moves would put his King into check, but the King is not actually in check at that moment.
Chess cannot be played without a King since the purpose of the game is to put your opponent's King in a threatened situation (in check) from which there is no legal move, i.e. a move which would still leave the King in check.
Any piece can put a King in check, except another King. To put another King into check would mean the King is putting itself in check so that would be an illegal move. But a King can contribute to a checkmate, an opposing King could not move next to it because that would put itself into check.
No , if your king is in check you can not counter with placing your opponent's king in check - you must respond to the move on your next turn by dealing with your king in check by moving the king out of check , removing the attacking piece by capture or by blocking the checking piece or you will need to concede / resign from the game . Look to the related link below regarding the rules of chess .
The rules of chess does not allow exposing your king to check at any time - regardless of circumstance .
In normal chess rules, the only piece that can be "checked" ... put in check ... is the opposing King. Technically, the King is never actually "taken", but rather put in checkmate; a state in which it is in check and no legal move to get it out of check exists. The game ends at this point, so there's little point in actually "taking" the King.
No because you cannot move into or move a piece that places your king in check.
