Why did the elves capture thorin?
They were captured several times, by the trolls, orcs, and Mirkwood spiders, respectively. But they were taken prisoner and kept in the dungeons by the Elves of Mirkwood (which is probably the instance you mean).
What does audacious mean in the hobbit?
In chapter 1, Thorin says the following: "We are met together in the house of our friend and fellow conspirator, this most excellent and audacious hobbit - may the hair on his toes never fall out! all praise to his wine and ale! -" I think audacious, in this instance, means having a willingness to take risks. It may have been a poor choice of word for Thorin to make. Perhaps, if Thorin had used the word brave, courageous, heroic, or valiant, he would have gotten a more positive response from Bilbo though it seems Bilbo was not in a mood to hear any words of that kind spoken of himself so early in the story. Bilbo is a hobbit after all and hobbits never do anything unexpected.
What important discovery does elrond make about the map in the hobbit?
Well he obviously wasn't aware of the presence of moon-letters and probably never thought to hold it up against the moon. I mean, who would? Elrond is more knowledgeable and perhaps had experience with these. I would say that Thorin is less observant and knowledgeable.
What happens in Chapter 15 of The Hobbit?
15-The thrush that Bilbo saw outside the secret door to the Lonely Mountain is spotted by roac son of Carc. He tells Bilbo and the dwarves that Smaug is dead and that they should not trust the Master of Lake-town, but Bard. Thorin, assuming his ancestral role as King under the Mountain, sends the thrush for Dain in the Iron Hills. Thorin wants to go back to the Mountain. The dwarves work to fortify the mountain against the Elvenking; as they work, the ravens bring them news. The elves pitch camp and make merry; the dwarves then make merry, as well. Bard approaches to parley with Thorin. He refuses as long as Bard's men ally with elves. Bard's men leave and then his banner-bearers return with a demand for part of the hoard if they come to the aid of the dwarves. Thorin refuses and tells them to consider themselves under siege

What is on the mountain that thorin's grandfather gave gandalf?
I'm not sure what you mean. Thorin's grandfather never gave Gandalf a mountain. As far as I know, Thorin's grandfather (Thror) died in Moria without ever meeting Gandalf. Gandalf did meet Thrain, Thorin's father, in the dungeons of the Necromancer and Thrain did give Gandalf a MAP of a mountain. And if your question is what is on the mountain on the map that Thrain, not Thror, gave Gandalf, in my edition of the Hobbit, it's a small picture of a dragon. Some of the spurs of the mountain also look like they're on top of it, but it's just a bird's eye perspective.
