Almost always, this is true; you only get the Chess piece whose square you land on. An exception is called 'en passant', and even here you get to take a piece by landing on the square the piece just moved over. It is a special move involving Pawn takes Pawn that you would have to read about before using.

How can you measure 5 acres square?

Area is defined as Length times Width 1 Acre (43,560 square feet) is a piece of land whose Length times Width is 43,560. Or if we take the square root of 43,560 we get 208.7 In other words if a piece of land is 208.7 feet on one side and 208.7 feet on another side this would be 43,560 square feet. So if area is 5 square acres. picture a tract of land that is 208.7 feet by 1043.5 (5 X 208.7) feet.

Can the king move up to a square occupied by a threatened opposing piece in chess?

If by moving up to a square, you mean an adjacent square, yes, as long as the square is not threatened by any opposing piece. This is the only way a King can attack another piece. A King cannot enter any square that is attacked by an opposing piece, i.e. place himself in check. He also cannot castle across an attacked square (king's bishop 1-f1, or queen 1-d1), but it does not matter if the rook or queen's knight squares are attacked, because he does not cross or land on those squares. He cannot castle out of check.

How does a Bishop in chess capture?

A Bishop captures the same way any other pieces captures, by making a legal move to another square occupied by an opponent's piece. A bishop moves as many spaces as it can along a diagonal line of squares until it comes to either an opponent's or his own piece. It may not jump over another piece and may not land on the square of a color that is different than the one it was on when the game started.
