You never take the king. You say check to alert the person their king is in danger. If they can block, move, or capture to get out of check, the game continues. If they can't it's checkmate and you've won.

Are you allowed to kill the oppenent's king in chess?

If what you mean by "leaving your king open" is not moving it out of check if your opponent puts your king in check, then yes, that is an illegal move. If your king is in check you mustmove to protect it. If you mean simply that you leave your king in the center of the board without castling or other protection, then it is not an illegal move. It may (and probably will) result in your king coming under attack very quickly, however.

No, because before you kill the king, but you're about to after your opponent's turn, they must get out of check because your queen is checking the king. In other words, they must use their own chess pieces to block the queen or they can move the king into a different spot that is not checked.
