Can I always choose which pawn to move?
When playing chess, you can move any piece you chose - within the rules. Obviously, any piece you move has to be able to make a legal move. Also, if you are in check, your next move must bring you out of check. This means your choice of next moves and which pieces to move is severly restricted. You can also never move a piece in such a way that it puts your king in check.

Is the queen taller in chess?
It depends on how you see it. In one sense, the king is bigger because the game ends once the king is checkmated, while the game continues even after the queen is captured! However, from the point of view of controlling squares, the queen is an extremely strong piece, due to the wide variety of allowed moves that it has! At an even deeper level, the answer to your question also depends on the phase of the game, and the dynamics of that particular game!
