With the exception of the pawns, which only move forward one square at a time (or two on the first move), chess pieces can move in any direction providing it is a legal move.
The king can move 1 square in any direction, but may not move into a square attacked by an enemy piece, nor capture a piece such that he is then attacked. When castling, the king moves two squares toward the rook, but may not land on or cross a square that is attacked by an enemy piece.
The queen moves any number of unblocked squares in any single direction : forward, backward, or diagonally. But not if her movement would expose the king to a direct attack. (A queen trapped between a queen, rook or bishop and her king is said to be "pinned".)
Until a pawn is promoted to a queen, rook, bishop or knight, it cannot move backwards.
Knights can move in any direction as long as there is an appropriate space available.

The Queen may not move as you described because it is an illegal move - only the knight has the power to jump other chess pieces . ~ See related link below for more information as to how the Queen moves .A:In regular chess, the Queen cannot jump any pieces at all. (The only piece which can jump an intervening pawn or piece is the Knight.)*However, there are versions of chess with alternate rules, known collectively as fairy chess, in which the Queen might be granted Knight-like features, including the ability to jump over a piece rather than capturing it.*And the King, while castling, can in a sense be said to have jumped over the Rook.
