What do you have to check before achieving checkmate in a game of chess?
Before achieving checkmate in a game of chess, you need to check if your opponent's king is in a position where it cannot escape capture on the next move.
Is it possible to castle out of checkmate?
No, it is not possible to castle out of checkmate. Castling is only allowed if the king and rook involved have not moved before, there are no pieces between them, and the king is not in check. If the king is in checkmate, it means the game is over and castling cannot save the king.

Does chess always have to end in a checkmate?
The opponent can resign if he thinks his situation is unwinnable, though technically that's just ending the game early before an impending checkmate.
What is an example of stalemate?
A stalemate occurs when one player's king is not in check, but has no legal moves left. Most often this occurs when a player's king is not in check but the player's only available move would put the king in check. Since the rules forbid a player from moving the king into check, the player has no legal moves remaining. But since the king is not "in check" it is not a checkmate.
Can the king move on check?
Yes, the king can move out of check, provided that doing so is a legal move (i.e. does not move into check again). If it cannot and there is no other way to defend the check, then it is mate.

What is the difference in mate and checkmate?
A checkmate in chess is when the king is checked and has no where to go. A stalemate is when the king is not in check and has nowhere to go and his other pieces(if any) also have no where to go. A stalemate is considered a draw. A checkmate occurs when a player's King is in danger of being captured by the other player's very next move and either the other player cannot move the king to a safe square, or cannot move one of his other pieces to block the capture or move one of his other pieces to capture the threatening piece. Checkmate ends the game with a win for the player checkmating the other player. Stalemate occurs when one player's king is not in check but the only legal move the king can make puts the king in check. Stalemate also ends the game but it counts as a draw.
Is it possible to achieve checkmate in a game of chess without putting the opponent's king in check?
