Yes. The surface area of a square is d^2. The surface area of a circle is pi/4 times the surface area of that square (so, pi/4×d^2). Pi/4 is roughly 78%, so you would get 22% pizza less.

That depends on what measurement you use for the size of the square pizza. Measuring corner to corner gets you a very different number than measuring edge length.
