If the question refers to a situation where both players have only their kings left, the game ends immediately by rule and is a draw. There is no possible way for a lone king to checkmate, or even stalemate, the other lone king. If the question refers to a situation where one player has only a king but the other player has additional pieces, the game continues as normal except that if the other player has only a king and a bishop or a king and a knight, then the game ends immediately in a draw, because it is impossible to checkmate a lone king with just a king and one minor piece. If the player has a lone king and the other has a king and a major piece (a queen or a rook) the game continues as normal, because checkmate will follow pretty swiftly unless the other player blunders. If one player has a lone king and the other has a king and a pawn, the game continues on because the pawn has a possibility of "queening", in which case checkmate will also be swift unless the one with the queen blunders.
You have to find another way to classify the piece as a king. For example, you may turn it upside down (if there are 2 different designs on each side) or put the other color piece on it until you lose a piece.
If one player still has other pieces, yes. If both players have only their king left, the game must be stalemated.
In some tournaments if a player has only the king remaining the game continues for ten more turns. If the other player is unable to force a checkmate by then then the game is considered stalemated.
Chess cannot be played without a King since the purpose of the game is to put your opponent's King in a threatened situation (in check) from which there is no legal move, i.e. a move which would still leave the King in check.
Nothing. The game ends when a player surrenders, or a state of checkmate, or stalemate is achieved. A player with just a king and one other piece can still achieve a checkmate depending on the piece.
A chess match with two kings left on the board is considered a draw. Neither black nor white can force a win with just kings.
