In chess can a king switch places with a pawn next to it when in check?

No. You cannot have more than one King on the board, and once you lose the King (checkmated), the game is over. You can, however, exchange the pawn for any ranking chesspiece (Queen, Bishop, etc,) provided the piece you are exchanging for has been taken by the oppsong side. You cannot exchange the pawn for a chesspiece that hasn't been taken. ================================ The last point is in error. The pawn can be promoted to any piece, except a king, by reaching the back row on your opponent's side of the board. But there is no requirement that the piece first be captured by your opponent. And yes! you can have two (or more) queens on the board that way. === As a practical matter, as #2 says, you may have two or more queens-you can identify additional queens by using upside-down rooks (if you have lost any). Otherwise, tie a little ribbon around the pawn you are exchanging to identify it as a queen.

The goal in chess, or the object of the game, is to checkmate your opponent's king. A king is in checkmate when he is attacked and no matter what move he attempts to make he is still being attacked (or in check). There are three ways to get out of check: move the king to a safe square, capture the checking piece, or block with another piece. If a player is in check and cannot get out of check, he is in checkmate and has lost the game.
