A few weeks ago, our guest coach GM Levan Aroshidze prepared an instructive video lesson for you – it is “Piece coordination and maneuvering in chess” (LINK). In that lesson, you would have learnt about how to use your pieces effectively, how to convert your weakest piece into a better one and lots more.
As the game moves on, some pieces will get exchanged – certainly, the game will not come to an end if none of the pieces is traded, unless if the king gets trapped and checkmated. 
There can be many instances, during a game of chess, where exchange of pieces would take place. Nevertheless, I hope that you remember a KEY note I taught you in my FREE course “Secrets of Strong Chess Players” (LINK) – “To take is a mistake!”

In most cases, it is better to maintain the tension rather than accept the offer of exchanging pieces.
Additionally, GM Aroshidze has prepared another lesson for you where you can learn about exchanging pieces in detail.
