No, after the dual. Claudius lets Hamlet's mother die, and Hamlet and Lateres both wound each other, than Hamlet forces the poison down Claudius' throat.
Ophelia.
Hamlet was causing problems for Claudius. His antics had disturbed the court and the kingdom. His killing of Polonius had deprived Claudius of his counsellor and had put him in an awkward position, since a murderer ought to be tried and put to death yet that would be politically unwise. Finally, Hamlet was on to him. Claudius had a pretty good idea that Hamlet knew that he had killed Hamlet Sr. and how it was committed. All this meant that Claudius was worrying about Hamlet instead of running the kingdom, which he had been doing quite well before all this. Claudius says, "like the hectic in my blood he rages."--it is becoming an obsession.
King Claudius believes that Hamlet is a threat to him because Hamlet killed Polonius, who was hiding behind the curtains and Hamlet and actually thought it was Claudius. Claudius feels threatened and in danger by Hamlets behavior and as a precaution sends him to England, where Claudius also sends a letter to kill Hamlet upon arrival in England.
Claudius has sent written instructions to the English to put Hamlet to death when he arrives there.
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".
Hamlet didn't write any letters to Laertes--ah, you mean "Did Claudius read the letter Hamlet wrote to Claudius out loud to Laertes?" I confess that it is difficult to phrase this question so it is unambiguous. Yes, Claudius reads the letter he got from Hamlet out loud to Laertes and asks whether Laertes can explain it.
Hamlet finds Claudius praying for forgiveness after the play. He decides that if he were to kill Claudius at that moment, Claudius would go to heaven rather than to hell. Hamlet decides to wait until he finds Claudius sinning, in order to kill him.
does* and it's a duel that was set up before by Laertes and Claudius to kill Hamlet. For Laertes because Claudius told him that Hamelt murdered his brother and for Claudius so Hamlet doesn't spill the secret that Claudius murdered Senior Hamlet.
Claudius is the king, right? That means he's surrounded by bodyguards all the time. You can't just march up to him with a knife in your hand. Hamlet has to find the right moment before he can kill Claudius.
Claudius knew. That's why he conspired with Laertes to kill Hamlet first.
Claudius and Laertes plot to kill Hamlet.
No, Claudius is Danish and the Ptolemies are Egyptian. There is nobody called Ptolemy in the play Hamlet.
If the secret is that Hamlet intends to kill Claudius, the correct answer is "false." We learn during the play that Hamlet has told Horatio, but there's nothing about Hamlet telling Marcellus of his intent to kill Claudius.

Hamlet kills Claudius by stabbing him with the poisoned sword Laertes carried and by forcing Claudius to drink the dregs of the poisoned drink which killed Gertrude.
Claudius has sent written instructions to the English to put Hamlet to death when he arrives there.
Hamlet tells the audience that he does not want to give Claudius the opportunity to absolve himself of all his sins before he dies. He says that to kill Claudius then would mean that Claudius would die a guiltless death, which is exactly what Hamlet did not want. He wanted to avenge his father by killing Claudius in the same way in which Old Hamlet was killed: unprepared and unforgiven for all of his outstanding sins. This is what Hamlet tells the audience, but it is also probably an example of Hamlet's inability to take action. Hamlet is presented with a perfect opportunity to avenge his father, and he comes up with an excuse as to why it is not the right time. The question is whether or not Hamlet is ready to take his life, not whether or not Claudius is going to have a sinless death.
