Claudius does not ask Hamlet what he has done with Polonius, although Rosencrantz and Guildenstern do. He asks Hamlet where Polonius is.

Hamlet answers, first that Polonius is at supper (not where he eats but where he is eaten) and second that Polonius is in heaven (where Claudius cannot go to find him). Then he adds, "But if indeed you find him not within this month you shall nose him as you go up the stairs into the lobby."

Why does Hamlet stab and kill Polonius?

Before Hamlet enters his mother's chamber, Polonius is having a discussion with Hamlet's mother Gertrude. As Hamlet enters the room, Polonius conceals himself behind a tapestry hanging from the wall. When he hears Gertrude begin to feel threatened by Hamlet, he cries out for help, thinking that he would kill them both. Hamlet hears Polonius, and believes him to be a rat/spy (possibly even King Claudius, but it is unclear if he truly believes this). Hamlet stabs through the tapestry killing Polonius, who remarks "O, I am slain".
