Capital punishment is the same as the death penalty. Today, lethal injection (injecting deadly chemicals into the condemned person's body) is the primary form of capital punishment. Some states, though, still allow prisoners to choose the electric chair.
As a side note, the US is the only industrialized country to practice capital punishment.

I suggest that you take a look at the home page of the Death Penalty Information Center for some of the basic ideas, including a brief history of capital punishment.

Capital Punishment is the sentence to Death. There are States that do not have Capital Punishment. I am not sure but I think Utah still hangs people. In most States people are put to death by injection or the electric chair.

The crimes that are usually given the death penalty in the U.S. are multiple murders and treason, although treason is rarely committed .
