Answer 1

As per the jQuery documentation there are following ways to check if a checkbox is checked or not. Lets consider a checkbox for example (Check Working jsfiddle with all examples)

Example 1 - With checked

$("#test-with-checked").on("click", function(){
    if(mycheckbox.checked) {
        alert("Checkbox is checked.");
    } else {
        alert("Checkbox is unchecked.");
    }
}); 

Example 2 - With jQuery is, NOTE - :checked

var check;
$("#test-with-is").on("click", function(){
    check = $("#mycheckbox").is(":checked");
    if(check) {
        alert("Checkbox is checked.");
    } else {
        alert("Checkbox is unchecked.");
    }
}); 

Example 3 - With jQuery prop

var check;
$("#test-with-prop").on("click", function(){
    check = $("#mycheckbox").prop("checked");
    if(check) {
         alert("Checkbox is checked.");
    } else {
        alert("Checkbox is unchecked.");
    }
});
