Let's take the opening first. How could a player determine which
piece to give an opponent to equalize the game given the difference in
ratings. Obviously, a queen's rook would be worth less than a king's
rook. But how can we put this into quantative values?

It cannot sensibly be done. Forget the idea and give time odds.
